Zesty Italian Pasta Salad

Our zesty italian pasta salad is a wonderful addition to any barbecue, potluck, family gathering, or as a side dish to almost any summer meal.
Ingredients
- 1 pound pasta, your choice
- 2-3 cups vegetables like broccoli, bell peppers, and tomatoes - chopped
- 1/2 - 1 cup sliced olives, I used black olives, but sliced kalamatas are good in this too!
- 1/2 bottle Zesty Italian dressing
- 1-2 tablespoons dry Zesty Italian dressing seasoning mix
Instructions
- Boil the pasta according to package directions. Rinse in cold water when cooked.
- Add the vegetables to the salad. For extra flavor, marinate the veggies in the dressing for 3-4 hours prior to putting the salad together. This is totally optional though!
- Mix in half of the Zesty Italian Dressing. Reserve the other half and the dry seasoning mix for immediately before serving the salad, and then mix in.
