So I bet you are wondering, why I am showing you a bowl full of just veggies?
Where is the pasta???
Well, it turns out that our pasta salad WITHOUT the pasta is really good too.
We made this salad about a month ago.
You know, when the diet thing was still going strong,
and we were being all good and cutting out as many carbs as we could.
Maybe I should have stuck with that longer:-)
We really liked eating a big bowl full of veggies this way,
so it has happened a few more times since then.
Fresh and delicious is always a good way to go for dinner.
Although my oldest did say he missed the noodles,
and the two youngest were grossed out by the fact that I put mushrooms in it:-)
Ingredients
Instructions
- Combine all the vegetables in a bowl. Stir in the dressing carefully. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Note: If you make this up ahead of time, don't add the mushrooms right away. Stir those in right before serving.

I love a big bowl of veggies, this looks yummy! Totally deserve dessert after eating that!
This looks wonderful to me! Veggies rock!
how cute – and even if a family wasn’t ‘into’ eating their veggies, these cute little jars can only help!
Anything in cute jars would make me want to eat it:-)
1. That salad is beautiful! 2. The jars are genius!
Thanks! I love to serve anything and everything in jars!!!
Love the idea of serving them in portion-control jars! Cute and effective, since I could easily polish off the whole bowl. I love all the colors + variety… I want some!
Looks yummy and I love how you display it too!

I don’t think veggies need portion controlling, but eating out of jars is pretty trendy on blogs these days.

Yeah, when I first read this I thought “perfect dinner for the hubs and I.” There is no way Jordan would touch this ever!
BUT it sounds really good and since watching what we eat (not going into our mouths) is starting here soon…this is the perfect fast dinner.
I love pasta salad + I bet it’s great without the noodles, too. i actually love veggies, so i know i’d love this. perfect accompaniment to some grilled burgers or chicken!
yes, this is definitely the perfect side to burgers or grilled chicken!!!
This will definitely make me a veggie lover. Thank you for sharing! I pinned it to find it later on Pinterest!
this is great – I love it!!! THe presentation is cool. This has been put on my dinner list this week!
Thank you! I love to use jars for almost everything! Hope you enjoy the salad!
