Boil pasta according to directions and let cool. In a large bowl mix together pasta, Italian dressing mix and mayo. Add all other ingredients, toss and serve.

Personal Notes:
This pasta salad got its start on one of those evenings when I just didn’t know what to cook for supper and it grew from there. You can pretty much toss in whatever veggies you have on hand. I used the colored pasta to make it fun for my (then young) children. Enjoy!
