This pasta, olive, and spinach salad is wonderfully light for those hot summer nights. If you like, it goes well with the addition of either tuna or grilled chicken. 

Couscous, Cranberry, and Feta Salad

Submitted by: Levedi
This recipe is great hot or cold. I invented it in grad school when I had no time to cook. It's a quick and easy one dish recipe. I use it as a side dish for nice meals or a full meal for lunch. You can make it in 5 minutes or less and eat immediately. For extra protein you can add chicken breast. 

Bacon and Macaroni Salad

Bacon, eggs, and tomatoes start the picnic right in this macaroni salad!

As the soup simmers I throw together Crunchy Romaine Toss,' she notes. Ramen noodles, broccoli and nuts get a unique treatment in this salad from a sweet-tart dressing. 'Guests always ask for the recipe,' she says. 

Greek Pasta Salad with Shrimp, Tomatoes, Zucchini, Peppers, and Feta

Submitted by: USA WEEKEND columnist Pam Anderson
Provided by: USA Weekend
Zucchini and yellow bell peppers are grilled ahead of time and combined with shrimp, cherry tomatoes, and feta cheese. I leave the Dijon dressing on the side and toss it at the picnic, just before serving. 

BLT Bow Tie Pasta Salad

I first had this summery salad at a family reunion. It's one of my husband's favorite dinners. Sometimes, we leave out the chicken and serve it as a side dish instead. --Jennifer Madsen of Rexburg, Idaho.
