pasta slaw
We came up with this recipe after eating pasta slaw at Nordy's BBQ. Neither my husband nor the kids would really eat coleslaw until we tried this recipe. Now, it's a family favorite that we make regularly. My father will ask for a little of the dressing to put on his hamburger. He says it tastes like a Frisko Freeze hamburger.

If pasta salad and coleslaw had a baby, this side salad would be the result. It's truly the best of both worlds. This cool and creamy salad is slightly sweet and tangy and full of texture. Cucumber and bell pepper add a touch of freshness and there's a little bite of onion. Once it sits, the flavors blend very well. A delicious side salad for any summer BBQ.
