• Cook the pasta according to package directions (about 9-11 minutes), drain and rinse the pasta under cold water. Let the pasta sit and cool while you are preparing the veggies.

To prepare vegetables

• Cut them up into small pieces your desired size. Some people like them smaller and others larger so chop them to your taste and style and they will still be fine. I suggest the broccoli be cut up into bite size pieces and left as whole as possible just for looks.

After pasta has cooled to room temperature

• Place the pasta in a large bowl. Add in the veggies and carefully mix.
• Add in one 16 oz bottle of the Zesty Italian dressing and continue to stir gently until all the pasta and veggies are coated.
• Add salt & pepper to taste.
• Cover and place in the fridge for a few hours to chill. Add extra dressing if needed.
