Ambers Quick fix kitchen pasta salad

Click here for a printable version of this recipe

This is always my "when all else fails" dish.
1. a box of your favorite pasta (or whatever is in the cabinet)-this can include, but not limited to elbow macaroni(a box of mac & cheese -sans cheese), broken up spaghetti, vermacelli or fettucine noodles, alphabet pasta, or whatever is in the cabinet.
2. a bottle of your favorite salad dressing- vinegarette types-italian, balsamic etc work best, but you can also go with a ranch, buttermilk, blue cheese etc or your favorite homemade dressing (I haven't tried french or thousand island, we don't keep those kinds)
3. a bag of frozen veggies(stirfry blends are my favorite, but I have also used california blend, italian blend, chopped broccoli or even regular frozen mixed veggies-I love the ones with asparagus)
optional:
black olives, mushrooms, articoke hearts, tuna, canned or frozen shrimp, fresh tomatoes, bacon bits, shredded cheese, parmesean etc.
-----

cook pasta according to directions. While pasta is cooking, mix veggies with salad dressing. Drain pasta and add it to the veggies and salad dressing. This is even better if you can make it up the day before and let the flavors blend for a few hours, but it can be served right away if needed (thaw or lightly microwave/cook veggies if serving right away.
