This is a nice side dish, goes great with cheeseburgers from the grill or by itself. It intensifies in flavor the longer you have it in the fridge, and the cheese makes it to DIE for!!!!
Ingredients:
1 bag multi colored corkscrew pasta
2-3 large juicy tomatoes
1 large or 2 small cucumbers
3 kosher dill pickles
approx 1 cup cubed smoked gouda cheese (if you don't like gouda, add whatever you do like-- fresh mozzerella balls go nicely)
3/4 cup italian salad dressing (add more for a stronger flavor-- also, any dressing of an oil and vinegar consistency will work)
salt and pepper
optional: add pepperoni, olives or broccoli florets for more flavor
Directions:
1. Boil pasta in salted water
2. Dice tomatoes, cucumbers, pickles and cheese (try to have all pieces approximately the same size)
3. After pasta is cooked to your liking, drain and rinse in cold water until the pasta is cold.
4. Add the dressing and toss.
5. Season with salt, if needed and black pepper.
6. Enjoy as a side dish or even by itself!!!!
