This Balsamic Basil Pasta Salad is packed with delicious Italian flavors and is a crowd favorite! The perfect healthy side dish to bring to any potluck, picnic or barbecue!

Happy almost 4th of July, party people! Do you have big plans? We plan on having a perfectly chill Fourth, where we’ll grill, drink and be merry (and then, of course, find some fireworks). Can’t wait! I LOVE grilling – well, if you want to get technical, I love to eat grilled food, my husband does all of the grilling here (probably another reason why I love grilling). 🙂

The bonus to him doing all of the actual grilling is that I can focus on any and all delish sides that I want to make*, like this crazy-good Balsamic Basil Pasta Salad. Um, YOU GUYS. You need to make this pasta salad. Let me just tell you why it’s so awesome before I get to some commonly asked questions about pasta salad.

Hey guys!! How are all the things?! I hope all of the mamas reading had an awesome Mother’s Day where you were just spoiled freaking rotten. And if you didn’t (and hey, even if you did!) know that I think you’re the shit.

As I’m writing this, I’m kind of feeling like garbage, but I’m reaaaallly hoping that I’m feeling better by tomorrow because it’s my birthday! On which I plan on eating my weight in sushi and I can’t wait! Oh, and did I also mention that The Foodie and The Fix just turned 4 on Cinco de Mayo?? And that is why… May is just the best month ever.

But do you know what else is the best ever?

The title gave it away, right?

Ok, but yes. This salmon, you guys. It’s bananas. But, ya know, salmon.

Also, this post may be mildly delirious, so I’ll apologize for that now. Sorry, guys.
