BROCCOLI, CHERRY TOMATO, & PASTA SALAD
I found this recipe in Cooking Light magazine years ago and, even though it takes a bit of time to prepare, it's still a favorite! I usually don't use the dill (although I do like it when I happen to have it on hand), and I use 1/4 cup of sliced green onions instead of the shallots.

[email protected]This salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning. I also found the broccoli to be a bit overcooked. Otherwise, it was a good recipe.
