Pasta Salad

Who doesn’t love something that’s nutritious, easy to make, and even better as leftovers? I know I do, especially as a college student. Growing up, my mom & dad always wanted to make me, pasta salad. This recipe is so easy to manipulate and modify depending on taste and budget. Below is my best impression and favorite version:

Half a box of rotini noodles

1 can of pitted black olives

1 bag of steamable assorted veggies

1/2 Carton of cherry tomatoes

Italian dressing

Parmesan cheese 

Boil the noodles until done. In a large bowl mix noodles, olives, cherry tomatoes, and veggies together. Once mixed, add as much Italian dressing as you would like. If you like, sprinkle a little parmesan cheese on top for taste! Super simple, easy to make lunch on the go.
