This will definitely be the show stopper at your next gathering.
I will admit I have a bit of a caesar salad addiction. I seriously can not pass it up. I decided to blend the flavor of a classic caesar salad with a pasta salad. Really what could be better?? The combination is to die for! This will definitely be the show stopper at your next gathering.
If you have a delicious caesar salad jar dressing that you love you can substitute it, rather than making the dressing from scratch.
Be ready for the multiple requests from your family and friends to make this over and over again.
