Quote:Pasta salads are back, but not as you know them.

Cool Pasta presents bright, delicious and original pasta recipes that will breathe fresh life into your favourite store-cupboard staple.

Pasta salad is the perfect warm weather dish: rummage through the shelves of your local store to rustle up a summery lunch for the next few days, prepare a big platterful for when company's comin', or simply eat it straight from the mixing bowl as you scan your diary for potluck or picnic potential.

With 60+ innovative recipes including Tuna Melt - the iconic sandwich reimagined as a pasta salad, Spanakopasta with grilled feta and crispy filo shards, silky and tangy Brown Butter Gnocchi Chaat, and a tongue-numbing Sichuan-Style Pici Salad, Cool Pasta takes the heat off every social occasion and brings texture, contrast and exciting flavours to the al fresco table.
