    1 small container of cherry tomatoes

Directions

This is probably the easiest recipe that I know.

You simply cook the pasta according to the directions on the box - boil it until done and drain

In a large bowl mix chilled pasta with olives, tomatoes, garlic, parsley, and italian dressing. Chill for about 1/2 hour serve and enjoy!

That's it - couldn't be much easier! Serves between 6 - 8 people.

    My family enjoyed this--had to substitute balsalmic vinigarette for the Italian--and chopped tomatoes, but it still worked. - 7/14/08

    This is actually also very good with rasberry vinegrette. Change it up anyway you'd like. This is my favorite! Enjoy
