Team Colors Dyed Pasta Salad -Philadelphia Eagles Version

I decided to cheer on the Eagles with a little Team Colors Dyed Pasta Salad for the Bears game. It seems to have helped, Woo-Hoo! You could make a version of this for whatever team you are still rooting for (or for whatever sport you're watching at the moment). Have to chuckle, in real life the green was darker and did have a that murky blueish under tone... In my photos, it's green:@) This is a fun little project that's sure to be a conversation starter at your next football party!

For the Eagles I used: 17 drops of green and 3 drops of blue.

A few years ago I posted this neat little NFL color chart from McCormick:

Directions:
  1. For each cup of cooking water use 20 drops of food coloring (for a brighter, intense color).
  2. Cook pasta per directions on the package or until desired doneness, drain and run under cold water until the water runs clear.
  3. Make your favorite pasta salad recipe and enjoy!
