Very Veggie Pasta Salad

[Guest guest]

Spring is in the air and this was tonight's dinner. I'm just so tired of

winter type food. Simple, good, and good for you! Makes a lot. Great to brown

bag the next day (and for many days thereafter). :-)

 

Cooked elbow macaroni or pasta of choice (I use whole wheat elbows)

1 can dark red kidney beans drained

1 can chick peas drained

Sugar snap peas

1 Red Pepper

1 Green Pepper

Broccoli

Shredded carrots

Zucchini

Sliced black olives

3 cloves garlic pressed

Low Fat Cheddar cut in small cubes

Balsamic vinegar

Olive oil

Salt

Pepper

 

Cut veggies into bite sized pieces, add to elbows and add dressing

ingredients to taste. Serve topped with garlic flavored croutons.
