Here is another lovely Pasta Salad that I like to serve with BBQ foods. It is a variation on the Veggie salad, but with tri-color rotini pasta.
Pasta Salad
Serves 8
Ingredients:
- 12-16 oz tri-color Rotini Pasta
- 1 large cucumber, peeled and cut into bite size chunks (remove the seeds if they are large)
- 1 package grape tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 large yellow bell pepper, cut into bite size pieces
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 can ripe olives, drained
- 3/4 cup Italian dressing (I used a roasted red pepper Italian dressing that is quite yummy)
Instructions:
Cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and shock with cold water to bring the temperature down. Combine the pasta, veggies and the dressing. Toss. Chill and serve.
