Italian Pasta Salad

This pasta salad requires hardly any cooking, and can be made in no time. That's what I'm talking about ...

1/2 package of rotini pasta
1/4 cup black olives, chopped
1/4 cup cucumber, chopped
1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, chopped
1/4 cup bell pepper, chopped
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 cup spinach, chopped
1/4 cup Feta cheese

For dressing:
1/2 package of Good Seasons Italian dressing mix
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup vinegar
1.5 tbsp water
1/2 tsp garlic paste

1. Boil pasta according to package directions.
2. Prepare dressing.
3. Combine the boiled pasta with veggies in a bowl.
4. Pour the dressing over the pasta salad and toss to combine. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Serve at room temperature.

The pasta salad is perfect for a beautiful summer day. I served the salad with herbed goat cheese sandwiches and it was a winning combination. Enjoy!
