What it is

Rotini with diced vegetables in an Italian-style vinaigrette. It is the plainest side on the menu and, depending on your view, either the most boring or the most useful.

The case for the latter: pasta salad is the only side that does not compete with anything. Sweet flavors, spicy flavors, rich melts — it sits alongside all of them without arguing. If you have ordered Kickin' Kay Lynne or Buffalo Barclay, this is the side that lets the flavor do its work.

What it costs you

Roughly 250 calories, which is more than broccoli salad and more than most people expect — pasta and oil-based dressing add up. It is still well under the 350 of a cup of mac and cheese.

Not gluten-free

Obvious once stated, but worth stating: pasta salad contains wheat pasta and is not suitable for anyone avoiding gluten. The gluten-free guide lists the sides that are.

Vegetarian by recipe.
