Steps:

  • Cook pasta according to directions, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • While pasta is cooking, chop tomato, peppers and onion into very small pieces. Add olives and mix.
  • Drain Rotini; rinse with cold water for about 3 minutes.
  • Mix pasta with tomato, peppers, onion and olives.
  • Refrigerate for about 1/2 an hour.
  • Add salad dressing; mix well.
  • Add Parmesan cheese; mix well.
  • Serve immediately.
  • If you have left overs, you will have to "re-wet" salad by adding a little more salad dressing the next day, especially if you substitute the dressing with a fat-free dressing.

8 ounces rotini pasta (Barilla is best)
1 large tomatoes, chopped
1 medium green pepper, chopped
1 medium red pepper, chopped
1 small onion, chopped (optional)
1 (2 1/4 ounce) can black olives, drained and sliced
1 (8 ounce) bottle Kraft sun-dried tomato salad dressing
1/4 cup parmesan cheese

SALAD PASTA

You know pasta salad, but this is salad pasta. A whole salad's worth of greens, folded into pasta to make a complete dinner in one bowl (or plate). We like to make this recipe with chickpea pasta for the added protein, and the garlicky anchovy sauce complements it especially well.

Steps:

  • Combine anchovies, garlic, oil, and red pepper flakes in a large skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until anchovies have disintegrated into oil and garlic is lightly browned, 6-8 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until al dente. Drain, reserving 1 cup pasta cooking liquid.
  • Remove skillet with anchovy mixture from heat and stir in butter and lemon juice until butter is melted. Add pasta and 1/2 cup pasta cooking liquid and stir constantly until a thick glossy sauce forms, adding more pasta cooking liquid as needed.
  • Place radicchio in a large bowl. Add pasta and sauce and toss to coat, adding more pasta cooking liquid as needed. Add arugula and basil but don't toss; season with salt and black pepper.
  • Divide pasta among plates or bowls, very gently tossing so arugula gets coated in sauce but doesn't wilt too much.

1 (2.2-oz.) can oil-packed anchovy fillets
1 head of garlic, cloves separated, thinly sliced
3/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1 lb. penne pasta
Kosher salt
3 Tbsp. cold unsalted butter
3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1 head of radicchio, trimmed, quartered, leaves separated
1 (5-oz.) package baby arugula
1 cup basil leaves, torn if large
Freshly ground black pepper
