Easy Tricolor Pasta Salad

[Guest guest]

We have all had those days when we were really pressed for time. Normally, I

will make a tricolor salad with fresh veggies, and allow it to marinate for a

day. However, this has worked exceptionally well when time did not allow for

anything like that.

 

Easy Tricolor Pasta Salad

 

1 (16oz) pkg tricolor pasta

1 (16oz) frozen California-blend vegetables(broccoli, cauliflower and carrots)

1 (2-1/4oz) can sliced ripe olives, drained

1-1/3 cups Italian salad dressing

1/4 tsp garlic salt

 

Cook pasta according to package directions. Meanwhile, place the veggies in

a microwave safe dish. Cover and microwave on medium for 7-8 minutes or

until thawed; drain. Drain pasta and rinse in cold water to cool. In a bowl,

combine the pasta, vegetables, and olives. Combine the dressing and the

garlic salt and pour over salad; toss to coat. Yield: 6-8 servings
