ChefBeckyD said:Pasta Salad - it can be packed in ziploc bags! Take your collapsible bowl, and assemble it there.
janezapchef said:That sounds yummy! I use cavatappi noodles (the spiral tube pasta). Black olives, red onion, cukes, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, cheddar and muenster cheese in chunks, red pepper. Then, for the dressing I do the Good Seasons Italian (the kind you make yourself) made with vegetable oil and red/white wine vinegar and water. I get rave reviews whenever I make it.
