Blue Ribbon Recipe

This gazpacho macaroni salad is filled with fresh garden vegetables and various textures. Gazpacho is typically made with tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and onions. This pasta salad mimics the soup's flavors but includes celery and peas, too. Everything is tossed in a tangy homemade dressing. This is a very hearty macaroni salad. With the addition of salami, this can be enjoyed as a light summer meal, but versatile enough to be a side dish.
