I am having a few couples for a Halloween dinner and found some black and white bow pasta and I am looking for ideas on what to do with it other than red sauce. Maybe a pasta salad? Anyone have a nice pasta salad recipe or any other ideas?

I'd do fresh vegies like snow peas, baby greens, carrots, celery, yellow and zuchini squash, broccoli, cauliflower, tomato, and spring onions, with romaine and some iceburg lettuce for the firmness. I'd add grilled chicken with oil, vinegar, a beaten egg, and poultry seasoning, aged parmesian cheese.
Paul Newmans Family Italian dressing because it has parmesian cheese in it.
I'd serve garlic bread with it.

@rrpell - Served the butternut pasta recipe you sent me and it was delicious and so fall festive. In fact I was asked for the receipt by everyone there, even the men! I will definitely make this again. Thanks.
