June was the hottest month globally on record, and July is shaping up to be much the same, which means we are on the hunt for some tasty meals that can be eaten cold, so we don’t end up with sweat pouring from our faces every time we have dinner. One of our go-to meals during this kind of weather has always been pasta salad. Giada De Laurentiis, author of Giada’s Italy: My Recipes for La Dolce Vita, clearly knows a thing or two about pasta, and her fresh, flavorful recipes are especially delicious in the summer. It makes sense, then, that the pasta salad recipe we’ll be making all summer is De Laurentiis’ Italian chopped pasta salad recipe.
