I made this for my family’s Fourth of July party and it was a hit! I substituted balsamic for the red wine vinegar (just more my taste) and made it the night before at my Mom’s house. My sister, Mom and aunt quickly started eating it and telling me how good it was. Overnight the flavors married and obsorbed into the pasta and it was actually a bit strong for my taste, but everyone still told me how awesome it was and that I absolutely must make this again for family gatherings. I agree and may make this as a nice, hot weather entree for dinner or lunches, but will add the vinegar/oil mixture only an hour or two before serving. Thanks for such a hit recipe!
