This is an old favorite that came from my Aunt Lexie. I love that you can put this together the day before and the longer it sits, the better it gets. I have done a variety of pasta from spaghetti to make it a main dish to shells for little fingers to pick up. You can even add some sort of protein to make it a complete meal. Grilled chicken or sliced salami hold up well in the marinade.
I made this last weekend for my Discovering Motherhood group and promised to post it.
Linguine Salad
1 lb pasta (almost anything will work), cooked and drained
1 pint cherry/grape tomatoes, halved
1 can olives, sliced
1 cucumber, diced
1 bottle Zesty Italian Dressing
4 T Suddenly Salad seasoning (McCormick's)
Mix all together and refrigerate at least 4 hours.
Family Factor: a favorite for Katie
Time Factor: so, so quick
Stomach Factor: pretty mild, but oil based
