I’m not usually the “I’ll bring the pasta salad” girl…. I’m more like the “I’ll bring the plates and napkins” girl. It’s not that I’m a lousy cook. I’m a really good one actually. I’m just lazy on weekends. I also don’t like keeping up with my bowl and serving spoon once I’m in cookout mode. [Read: drunk.] True story.
But the other night we had some folks over to our house and I threw together a quick pasta salad that was really awesome, so I thought I’d share the recipe.
You will need:
-a box of pasta (I used penne), a cucumber, a small container of grape tomatoes, a can of black olives, a bottle of Italian dressing, and a packet of ranch mix
Directions:
-cook pasta to al dente, drain and chill
-halve the olives and tomatoes, peel & chop the cuke to small (bite-size) pieces
-wisk together the italian dressing and ranch powder
-toss together chilled noodles and veggies, pour on the dressing
-mix everything until coated, chill until ready to serve
En processe…
DELISH! PROMISE!
