Tomato-Spinach Pasta Salad

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read my full disclosure policy.

This tomato-spinach pasta salad is a wonderfully delicious salad that goes great with a bbq, picnic or a pot luck meal. It is simple to make, satisfying and tastes amazing.

After placing all the dressing ingredients in a bowl, I cooked the pasta. When the pasta was cooked and cooled, I assembled the salad, tossed together and placed in a bowl to serve.

It was quick and easy to throw together. I was able to use a few ingredients from our garden too! Currently we are growing these small cherry tomatoes that are so juicy and full of flavour and go really well in this salad. After picking the spinach, I washed it, then roughly chopped it before placing it in.

This tomato-spinach pasta salad is quick and easy to throw together and would be a great addition to any bbq, picnic or pot luck meal.
