pasta salad
« on: September 19, 2007, 09:39:53 PM »
ok not really a game recipe but good for summer.  

1 lb of pasta(use whatever shape ya want but I use twisted kind)
4 medium sized tomatoes
1 large vadalia onion(or use purple onion for color)
1 can of sliced black pitted olives
1 pack of peperonis 200 count
2 blocks of cheese(whatever kind you like but chedder works well)
1 bottle of gazebo room dressing(this is a greek style dressing italian works well also)
2 green bell peppers(i normally do not put these in because I do not like the texture of pepper that is not cooked)
salad seasoning

boil pasta until done
while the pasta is boilin I cut the onions up.

after pasta is done strain and put in a large bowl.
add cut up onion and bottle of dressing.

place in fridge to cool.  if I am in a hurry then I put it in the freezer stirring every 5 minutes.

while it is cooling I cut up the tomatoes, pepper, and cheese.

after it is cool add cheese tomatoes pepper olives peperonies and stir well.  you will find that the peperonies will want to stick together.  I normally put some in and then mix put some more in and mix until I have no more.  

serve cold
