Recipe(tried): Elly's Pasta Salad (repost of one of dear Elly's recipes)

I love this recipe because of the freshness of the ingredients & the convenience of its substitution for fresh ones! DELICIOUS!

ELLY'S PASTA SALAD

1 lb package tri-colored corkscrew pasta
any or all of the following:
thinly sliced purple onion
chopped green and red bell pepper
chopped celery
thinly sliced carrots
sliced mushrooms
small broccoli florets
artichoke hearts
sliced black olives
thinly sliced pepperoni
1 bottle wish bone robusto Italian dressing
grated parmesan cheese

Cook the pasta, drain and rinse with cold water, drain well.

Prepare all the veggies, combine with pasta in large bowl. Pour on about half the dressing and mix well (I always add more later, after the ingredients soak it up).

Put in fridge for at least 24 hours before serving. Stir a couple of times during this period, and add more dressing if desired.

When ready to serve, sprinkle on parmesan cheese and mix in well.
