Another Yummy Recipe

We had this yummy recipe at my sister's house a couple weekends ago. We dressed it up a little more to make a complete meal out of it. It's nice, easy & light for the summer.

Rainbow Rotini Pasta Salad

Vinaigrette:
1 c. Mayo
1/2 c. sugar
1/4 c. apple cider vinegar
1 tsp parsley flakes
1/2 tsp lemon pepper
1 tsp basil flakes
1 tsp garlic salt
1 tsp. Mrs. Dash

I make 1.5 of the vinaigrette when I add all the extras

Pasta Salad:
1 bag Rainbow Rotini Pasta, cooked & drained
Bell peppers, multi-colored ( I used red, yellow, & orange)
Broccoli florets (I use about 1/2 head)
Mini-tomatoes (I used about 1/2 of the small container)
** I add 3 grilled chicken breast & 1-2 cups mozzarella cheese

Mix salad ingredients together. Vegetable amts can be varied according to individual preference. Combine vinaigrette ingredients together. Mix well then pour over salad and toss.
