Been a while since I've posted what's been on the burner, so here's
what I made today.

Trottole pasta salad. In Italian trottole means spins. With the spiral
on one end, and a point on the other end, it does resemble a spinning
top.
I used it to make a delicious pasta salad, but I can't wait to try it
with a spaghetti sauce, that would be devine.

To the pasta I added some salami, mozzarella and Parmesen cheese, red
and yellow bell peppers, scallions, black olives and my homemade
Italian salad dressing.
The perfect lunch on a hot day.

Interesting shape, but I don't recall seeing it where I shop. I
usually buy Barilla and the pasta shelf is large so it's possible to
miss it.

Looks and sounds lovely Koko. I'll have to make something like this
myself, thanks for the recipe.
