Classic Italian Pasta Salad
8 ounces uncooked rotelle or spiral pasta
2-1/2 cups assorted cut-up fresh vegetables (carrots, tomatoes, bell peppers, cauliflower, broccoli, onions and mushrooms > anything you like!)
1/2 cup cubed cheddar or mozzarella cheese, or they can be shredded if you prefer
1/3 cup sliced pitted ripe olives (optional)
*Pepperoni to taste
1 cup Wish-Bone Italian Dressing
Directions: Cook pasta according to package directions; drain and rinse with cold water (shake off excess carefully!) and then put aside until completely cool. In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients except the dressing. Now add the Italian dressing and toss well. Serve chilled or at room temperature. Serves 6.
NOTE: If preparing a day ahead, refrigerate, then stir in 1/2 cup additional Wish-Bone Dressing before serving. Adjust the amount needed to your family's taste!
