Pasta salad recipes?

The weather is supposed to be really crappy this weekend, which totally *****. But we are having two other couples over on Sunday and I had planned on grilling. I still think I might - thinking ginger sesame chicken and london broil. I want to make a pasta salad with it, I bought tri-color farfalle - what should I put in it?

TIA

Sorry I don't know how this would be with your pasta - I use elbows.

I make the pasta according to directions. Then I chop up celery and tomatoes. Once the pasta is ready I put into a bowl with the celery, tomatoes, mayo, salt & pepper (the last 3 are according to taste)

I just googled tri color pasta recipes and tons came up - here's a sample

I make it with italian dressing....oregano...peas, onions, grape tomatoes cut into 1/2 or 1/4, black olives (but into 1/2 or 1/4), cheddar cheese (you could use grated, but I get the slices of cheddar cheese at the deli counter and cut it into small pieces), salami (again, at the deli counter, sliced thin, and then I cut it into small pieces.

YUM
