Italian Pasta Salad

My mom always used to make this and I love it!

Ingredients:
1 box (12 oz.) Rainbow Rotini (or any pasta you like - this is nice and colorful)
1 bottle italian dressing
Variety of vegetables, like carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers, celery, olives, etc.
Can add cheese, diced ham, etc (optional)

Boil pasta according to directions on the box. (Do not overcook!) Drain and let cool. Chop veggies to add. Once pasta is cooled, add veggies and dressing. Add as much or as little dressing as you like. I usually use about half the bottle, or a full bottle if I double it and cook 2 boxes of pasta. Stir and refridgerate until ready to serve.

This is the kind of salad that the flavor gets even better the longer it sits in the dressing. A word of caution though, if you want it to last a couple of days, don't add tomatoes because they tend to not taste as fresh a couple days later.
