On the side, my mom made an Artichoke Pasta Salad recipe from The South Park Elementary School Cookbook. This is a cookbook from when I was in elementary school where a bunch of families submitted favorite recipes. It's a great idea for schools to do to celebrate where everyone comes from. This pasta salad is fantastic and quickly becoming one of my favorite summer meals. It's quick, simple, and cold!
