Are you ready for a easy summertime salad?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This spaghetti salad is one of the easiest salads you can throw together on a hot summer day for a backyard bbq, pool party, lunch, or dinner with added protein (or not). <\/p>\n

I made this salad decades ago when I catered in The Woodlands and I just rediscovered the recipe and took to our Round Top Lunch Bunch today. Several people ask for the recipe and since I always take pictures of food I make incase I want to blog it, here’s the recipe for anyone who use to make it and forgot how nice of a salad it is or someone just tasting it for the first time.<\/p>\n

I was surprised McCormick still made their Salad Supreme seasoning and our local HEB carried it. You can add just about anything to this salad. I had spaghetti which I broke in half. Next time I would probably break the pasta into thirds. My add-ins were black olives, roma tomatoes, broccoli, the little miniature peppers that are different colors, sunflower seeds, red onion, cucumber and julienned carrots. If you don’t like cucumber zucchini is a good substitute. I’ve also used yellow squash and I think a good crumble of feta cheese would be great or some parmesan.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We are having leftovers tonight with some grilled redfish so dinner tonight will be a breeze. I’m thinking this summer I might do this salad with some grilled chicken added to the top.<\/p>\n

If you have any other variations you try, please leave me a note down below.  Other than. the dressing\/spices I didn’t measure anything. If this is the first time to my blog, take a look around because a lot of the Michie family recipes are on these pages.<\/p>\n

BLAST FROM THE PAST: <\/span><\/strong> Tomato and Onion Salad<\/a> is another great and easy recipe to make in the summer months when you start getting some beautiful tomatoes on your vines or from the market.<\/p>\n
