Bow-Tie Pasta Salad

Bow-Tie Pasta Salad
  • 1 (16 ounce) package bow-tie pasta (farfalle)
  • 1 (12 ounce) bag broccoli florets
  • 1 (10 ounce) basket cherry or grape tomatoes
  • 1 bunch green onions, sliced
  • 1/2 cup chopped celery
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 cups creamy salad dressing (such as Miracle Whip®)
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt


  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook the bow-tie pasta at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes; drain.
  2. Quickly rinse the cooked pasta in cold water to stop it from continuing to cook; drain.
  3. Mix the cooled pasta, broccoli, tomatoes, sliced green onions, celery, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper in a large bowl.
  4. Gently stir the salad dressing, Parmesan cheese, sugar, basil, and salt in a bowl until evenly mixed.
  5. Pour the salad dressing mixture over the pasta mixture; gently toss to coat evenly.
  6. Refrigerate 3 hours to overnight before serving.
