Apricot Pasta Salad Recipes
APRICOT PASTA SALAD
This unusual, summery pasta salad recipe comes courtesy of the California Apricot Council. I love apricots, and will be trying this once fresh ones come into season. If you can't find fresh apricots, canned ones might make a suitable substitute. NOTE: Cooking time is for the pasta. If you chop the veggies while the pasta cooks and cools, and use store-bought rotisserie chicken, this can be a snap to put together.

ARUGULA SALAD WITH GRILLED APRICOTS AND PISTACHIOS
Pungent arugula contrasts beautifully with fruit of all kinds. Grilling the apricots deepens their flavor and makes them stand out against the arugula even more. You'll be able to make this beautiful salad only during the summer's short apricot season, and even then, you should buy the fruits at the farmers' market so you can sample them to make sure they are juicy and sweet.
