Pasta Salad with Cilantro Lime Vinaigrette

Want a deliciously different pasta salad? The cilantro lime vinaigrette in this salad is a refreshing change from Italian pasta salads. This recipe is an adaptation from a local restaurant that you will want to add to your menu! You can make this salad a main dish if you would like by adding cooked shrimp or chicken. This is one of our favorite salads at our house!
