RAINBOW ROTINI SALAD
A great little recipe from my Publix Grocer's Product Department -- they have recipe cards there and I always grab the ones that sound good. This one did not disappoint. Even DD enjoyed this pasta salad. NOTES: I used Colby Jack cheese instead of the cheddar, and about 1/2 of the listed amount. I also cut the dressing by half, the original recipe calls for 1 cup. I used a mixture of Newman's Own Tuscan Italian and Olive Oil & Vinegar dressings. I'm sure some fresh chopped broccoli would be a nice addition too.
