Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
• 1 large bag pasta – choose spiral, bow tie, macaroni or any of your favorite pasta
• be sure not to over cook the pasta for a salad – as it will fall apart when mixed with all the ingredients
• 1 red bell pepper - diced
• 1 orange bell pepper - diced
• 1 yellow bell pepper – diced
• 1 jar sliced salad green olives
• 1 or 2 small cans sliced black olives
• 3 stalks celery – stringed and diced
• Diced green onion or red onion if you like
• 1 large pkg of Colby jack cheese – cut into tiny squares (Now they make Cheese Crumbles that would work great!) any cheese you want is great
• drizzle just a little olive oil if you want – originally did not do this but now I use it to cut down on the mayo.
• Mayonnaise to taste ( I use light now and sprinkle in hidden valley dip mix
• Salt and Pepper
• Add any seasonings you would like - the boy’s also add Tony Chachere’s

Directions:
Prepare vegetables and toss with pasta and other ingredients. Add Mayo, salt and pepper. Mix well and refrigerate. My boys always add Hidden Valley Dressing When they eat it -- but it is not necessary. Grilled Chicken or boiled shrimp are great added for a complete meal.
