Quick pasta salad ideas for DS dinner

9 replies

Hi, my DS is going on a long coach journey soon and needs to take dinner with him. I thought a pasta salad would make a healthy change from sandwiches/sausage rolls etc but I don't have much experience of making them. Any suggestions? He's not particularly fussy and loves most veg, protein and anything healthy really. Thanks!

Cherry tomatoes, pesto, mozzarella, olives?

Or sweetcorn, cucumber, beans etc with a lemon and olive oil dressing and some dried herbs

I love pesto and some chopped grilled peppers from a jar and cherry tomatoes.

We LOVE pasta, tiny diced: carrots, broccoli and cauliflower with small Red Leicester cubes. Dressing: Mayo, dill, vinegar, salt, pepper. So so good

Finely chopped red onion, peppers, cucumber and some sweetcorn.
Add tin of tuna, cold pasta, Mayo and salt and pepper
Stir altogether

Yummy!

I second that on tuna mayo pasta with cucumber, sweetcorn and red onion. Simple quick and really tasty.

Tuna, sweetcorn, peppers, red onion is my go to but tuna may be a bit anti social on a coach!
Bacon, cherry tomatoes, celery, red onion, gherkins, grapes with honey and mustard dressing is good.

Not tuna! Would smell on coach
