This is a recipe that I came up with many years ago...Although this uses help from the pantry, it's a huge crowd pleaser and so easy and quick. Every time I make it I am asked for the recipe!
Ingredients
- 1 bag Tri color pasta shopping list
- Head of broccoli, cut into florets shopping list
- cheese cubes shopping list

- **I don't really use measurements on this one...it's a matter of personal taste shopping list
How to make it
- Boil pasta until cooked, but still slightly firm
- Allow to cool completely
- Lightly steam broccoli (about 1 minute)...do not overcook!
- Mix all ingredients together
- refrigerate for an hour, or overnight.

- **I usually use 2/3 of the bottled dressing, and reserve the remaining 1/3 to mix in right before serving.
