Oh the PASTAbilities!

In high school one of my favorite things was Vanessa's mom's pasta salad!  But, we only had it 2 times a year.  An old friend of mine passed a long a pasta salad recipe that was really similar.  I hope you enjoy it!

Ingredients:
Rotini pasta (corkscrew pasta)
Italian salad dressing
A bell pepper (any color)
A small can of sliced, black olives
A cucumber
Salad Supreme by McCormic (In the spices aisle)
A small onion

Directions:
1. Boil and drain the pasta.
2.  Dice an onion and a pepper.
3. Add the onion, bell pepper, cucumber and the can of olives to the pasta.
4.  Add the Italian salad dressing so that the pasta is coated.  It should be just enough so that the pasta is oily, but not so much that it is soaking in the dressing. 
5.  Add the salad supreme to taste.
