How to Make Pasta Salad With Gorgonzola Dressing
- Cook 1 pound fusilli pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain, rinse under cold water, and drain again.
- While pasta cooks, prepare the vegetables: Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Add 1 cup broccoli florets and 1 cup sliced carrots. Cook for 1-2 minutes until crisp-tender.
- Add 1 medium yellow squash, sliced, and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Drain, rinse under cold water, and drain again.
- Rinse 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion under cold water and drain.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup mayonnaise, 1/2 cup buttermilk, and 4 ounces crumbled Gorgonzola cheese until smooth and creamy.
- Add the cooked pasta, broccoli, carrots, yellow squash, and red onion to the dressing. Gently stir to coat evenly.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, stirring occasionally to allow the flavors to blend.
- Serve chilled and enjoy!
