Salads

Radiator Salad (Pasta Salad) - 1996
​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Recipe courtesy of Jim and Charlene Wozny

INGREDIENTS
  • 1 16 oz. pkg.  Radiatorre or rotini pasta -- boiled and drained
  • ¼ cup  canola oil
  • 1 medium  onion -- sliced
  • 1 cucumber -- sliced
  • ¾ cup  sugar
  • ¾ cup  white vinegar
  • 1 cup  water
  • 1 teaspoon  salt
  • 1 teaspoon  parsley
  • 1 teaspoon  pepper
  • ½ teaspoon  garlic salt
  • 1 tablespoon  yellow mustard
  • 5  drops  yellow food coloring

​PREPARATION
Boil pasta according to directions, adding food coloring during cooking process, if desired. Rinse with cold water, add oil to coat, and stir in onions and cucumbers. In separate bowl, mix sugar, vinegar, water, salt, pepper, parsley, garlic salt, and mustard. (Add a little water to the mustard before adding--this makes it a lot easier to mix in.) Pour mix over pasta, stir well, and refrigerate until ready to serve.

No Wozny picnic would be complete without this favorite! Add other ingredients to your liking.  Ginny Shonk adds sliced black olives, bacon bits, and red and green peppers.
