Introduction
This salad looks so pretty and is completely flexible in its ingredients. This is my favorite way to make it, but it's also great with other veggies and cheeses!

Ingredients
-
Barilla Tri-Color Fiori, 10 oz
1/2 Large red pepper, chopped
1/2 Meduim red onion, sliced thin
1/2 cup raw baby spinach
20 cherry tomatoes, halved
5 tbsp Fat Free Sun-Dried Tomato Vinaigrette Salad Dressing
1 tbsp grated Parmesan Cheese
1/2 tsp Oregano
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Cook pasta until barely tender. Meanwhile, chop veggies.
Drain pasta, put into large bowl with veggies. Add dressing and toss to coat. Stir in spinach, oregano, and cheese, and add salt and pepper to taste.
This is best if you can make it the night before and let it sit, covered, in the fridge overnight. The flavors really get into the pasta that way and it makes a much tastier salad. It's great right away, too, though, so it's ok if you can't wait!
This can be tweaked in a million ways. One of my favorite swaps is adding sliced black olives and some feta cheese instead of the parmesan. Of course, this will change the nutritional values.
