Veggie Wednesday

I just did a post over at my other blog all about pasta salad. This one is a variation of my own favorite pasta salad (listed on my Family Favorites page), but without the meat or cheese. Now that I've posted it I'm definitely in the mood for making it!

Anne's Veggie Pasta Salad

1 lb rotini (any type)
3 large tomatoes peeled seeded and chopped OR
1 pint grape tomatoes-halved
1 large cucumber peeled seeded and chopped
2 small green peppers seeded and chopped
1 can black olives drained and sliced
2c cooked and drained or 1-15oz can cut green beans-drained
2c broccoli florets
2c cauliflower florets
2c or 1-15 oz can kidney or small white beans-drained
1 c shredded carrot
1 large bottle (at least 24 oz) Italian dressing-more if the salad will sit overnight.

Cook pasta and drain well-cool completely. Add remaining ingredients and toss to mix. Refigerate for several hours before serving.
