Strawberry Poppyseed Pasta Salad

Real talk for a second.  School is a beast this month.  I don't know why teachers have to wait until the last of the semester to pile up all the work instead of gradually giving it over the four months.  Needless to say, I'm not blogging or cooking as much I'd like lately.  I have so much writing and math to do it's ridiculous.  I'm actually enjoying a math class for once in my life but with my writing class, I haven't been able to focus on math and now I have piles of math problems to do.  Anyways.. Once this semester is over in a couple of weeks I'll be throwing out new recipes left and right!

It's clearly not summer anymore (boo), but that doesn't mean you can't whip up this delicious summer inspired pasta salad.  And let's all take a moment to be grateful for Six Sisters' Stuff.  Seriously, what would I do without them?!  I got this recipe straight from them and wouldn't change a thing- well because it's amazing!  So easy to throw together and only has a few ingredients.



What you need:

1 16 oz package of bow tie pasta
3/4 cup creamy poppyseed dressing
3/4 cup light mayonnaise
2-4 green onions- sliced
1 11oz can of mandarin oranges- drained
2 cups strawberries- sliced

- Cook pasta al dente, drain and put in a large bowl.  I put the noodles in the fridge for about 20 minutes so they cool.
-  In a separate bowl, mix together poppyseed dressing and mayonnaise.  
- Take the dressing mix and fold into the pasta.
- Add strawberries, oranges and onions. 
-  Cool in the fridge for an hour before serving.
Enjoy!
