12-16 oz pkg colored spiral noodles
1 diced red pepper
1 diced green pepper
1 diced cucumber
sliced olives, I usually do 3/4 of a can
diced mozzarella cheese (optional)
Bernstein's Cheese Fantastico Light Italian Dressingdiced mozzarella cheese (optional)
Boil noodles according to package directions. Do not overboil! Want them a tad chewy. Rinse with cold water and drain well. Add in all other ingredients and toss in a large bowl. Dump a bunch of the dressing over the salad, about 3/4 of the bottle. Sprinkle with lots of Parmesan cheese. Stir and refrigerate.
Best made the night before or the morning before you plan on serving it. Very good when all the flavors meld together overnight. When you take the salad out to serve, freshen it up by shaking in a little more Parmesan cheese and another good amount of salad dressing. I usually end up using the whole bottle. You could also use any other Italian dressing your family likes.
