Simple Pasta Salad


The pasta salad in this plate was something The Mrs whipped up the other day.  It is her at-home recreation of Suddenly Salad! -- one of her favorite "snacks".

Boil some pasta with salt water according to the package directions and let it cool.  We like the multi-colored pasta with little ribs/texture on them.  Cube up some cheddar cheese, slice cherry tomatoes, and black olives, and top everything with green onions.  Then all you need is some Italian salad dressing, and maybe a little Parmesan cheese to top everything off.

You can make a big batch of this and keep it in the refrigerator for later.  It's served cold, so you can have it any time.  It really is a quick way to add a nice summer side to most meals.
