Pasta is a firm favourite when it comes to food, and in honour of it being World Pasta Day tomorrow, here are a few examples of delicious pasta dishes you might want to incorporate into your wedding menu:

Pasta salad

You can’t go wrong with a pasta salad, and as there are a multitude of different recipes for this simple yet versatile dish, you can choose whichever best suits your palate. Seafood lovers might opt for crab and asparagus pasta salad, whereas a vegan wedding would benefit from a Mediterranean pasta salad with tofu. Meat lovers can use ham, bacon or salami in lieu of meat substitutes.

Soup

As the weather turns cooler, a hearty soup for a wedding starter will be most welcome by your guests. Some great ideas for pasta-based soups include chicken noodle and minestrone. Garnish with a sprig of parsley and serve with a range of continental breads for an elegant and tasty first course.

Gnocchi

The debate on whether or not gnocchi should be considered pasta, a dumpling or just potato is probably not going to be settled anytime soon. Technically, it’s made from potatoes, but has very similar qualities to pasta. Gnocchi can be served as a vegan entrée with a delicious spinach sauce, or as part of the main course. Alternatively, try a tasty chicken and chorizo gnocchi dish for a crowd-pleaser.
