LOVE your recipe Mini. I can taste it now and it's only 8:31 am LOL You've got my "5" forks but I don't understand why someone has rated this recipe poorly. Somebody's got a bee in their bonnet and they're doing the same thing to many recipes in the group. I'm anxious to make this and I know it will taste good!
Cheers!!!

We must have the same taste buds... ;-)~~ What is not to like. The herbs and dressing are perfect. I am a sucker for any pasta salad with olives....
