This is a delicious and simple pasta salad that my family loves! This salad is perfect for a Cinco de Mayo party, Barbeque, or a potluck. It is tasty and will be a crowd pleaser for sure. I love the flavors with the creamy lime dressing and the fresh cilantro. The Cotija Cheese is what makes this salad the best! I love anything with Cotija in it! I hope that you love this salad as much as we do!
