I first sampled this refreshing salad at a church potluck several years ago. The mix of pasta, zucchini, summer squash, cucumber, sweet peppers and black olives is coated with a light vinaigrette. Any pasta can be substituted for the mostaccioli. -Julie Sterchi Jackson, Missouri

Yum! Definitely will add tomatoes next time. That would make it perfect.

I also added in cherry tomatoes cut in half. It was very good.

I tried this recipe last fall and everyone liked it, and I will be making it again for an upcoming Spring Crazy Bunco. Tell Julie to submit more of her recipes, as this one is a really great recipe. Thank you Julie. Sincerely, Karen Crofford
