MOSTACCIOLI VEGGIE SALAD



Mostaccioli Veggie Salad image

I first sampled this refreshing salad at a church potluck several years ago. The mix of pasta, zucchini, summer squash, cucumber, sweet peppers and black olives is coated with a light vinaigrette. Any pasta can be substituted for the mostaccioli. -Julie Sterchi Jackson, Missouri
