Oh, my gosh! I do not have lots of basil in my garden, and not wanting to denude my lonely little plant, I only used 17 basil leaves. I also doubled the dressing because that’s how we roll around here. It is delicious! Super-duper wonderful! Thanks so much!

I want to marry this pasta salad! Love, love, love it! I only made half because it’s just me, but I keep going to get more!

This is a great Summer salad. My husband isn’t a big fan of mayo or pasta salads, but he loves this recipe. I made a batch of it 3 days ago and we’ve both eaten it for lunch and dinner each day. Next time, I will double the dressing as suggested by greenrobin.

This is GREAT! I’m making it again next week for lunch with friends. I’m going to add some chicken, corn and black olives in place of the basil.

I made this yesterday … it was out of this world delicious! My husband and I had it as a side with some grilled rib-eyes. We decided this was a meal that we needed to serve to company, it was just so darned good. Thanks for the recipe ~ definitely a keeper!

Just finished making this exactly as posted – my only sub was rainbow Rotini instead of Mostaccioli since that was all I had in the cabinet. I have to say this salad is every bit as wonderful as it looks! My husband will want to marry me all over again! Thanks!

I made this for the 4th of July party. This pasta was amazing. The chipotle adds just the right amount of heat – not too much, not too little. Loved this one.

This was a huge hit! Everyone loved it and I’ll definitely be making this again.

I made this tonight. Used small bow tie pasta, chopped regular tomatoes, added a little minced onion, chopped avocado, shaved parmesan cheese and diced smoked gouda. Was really good. Probably be even better tomorrow. Made the same dressing, but no basil.

I added Vidalia onion and a couple of pinches of sugar to the dressing. Was very good!

I made a variation on this tonight and it was SO GOOD. My partner doesn’t like smoked flavors, so I used Pesto Gouda instead of Smoked Gouda and skipped the chile sauce. I also used diced regular tomatoes instead of grape tomatoes. Finally, instead of cooling the pasta I made it with the pasta warm, and I melted some of the cubes of Gouda into the pasta before mixing it altogether. YUM.

Smoked Gouda is my favorite cheese and I am always happy to find a recipe with it as an ingredient. Thanks for sharing
