Easy Pasta Salad

This is one of the easiest recipes to take to a pot luck. It survives well in the heat, but it always gets eaten quickly. Experiment with pretty pasta varieties, and colorful ingredients from your cupboard and refrigerator. You can also replace the feta cheese with a vegan cheese like Vegan Gourmet Cheese Alternative. Use the ingredients that your family loves and it will be uniquely yours.

1 lb tri-color corkscrew pasta, cooked and cooled
1 small can large pitted olives, sliced
1 package traditional crumbled feta cheese (There are several tasty vegan feta alternatives, too)
1 small red pepper, julienned
1 small package of frozen broccoli florets (drain off any excess liquid)
Your favorite vinegar and oil, or prepared Italian dressing to taste.

Toss everything together in a large serving bowl and chill until the party. Go light on the dressing, because you can always add more right before serving, if necessary.
