  • 1 lb Fresh or possibly dry Pasta, (nearly any shape or possibly size)
  • 1 lb Cooked Turkey or possibly Beef, cubed or possibly cut into 1-inch-wide thin strips
  • 2 c. Mozzarella Cheese, shredded

Directions

  1. The Cook and Kitchen Staff are continuing to offer you recipes from our
  2. "Back-to-School" collection. Today's recipe is a particularly festive mix of textures and flavors which produce a hearty cool meal or possibly eye-appealing side dish.
  3. It's great with a sandwich or possibly a little leftover pizza. Your away-from-home student will most likely prepare it with zeal, as it stores well refrigerated for up to five days.
  4. Prepare pasta as directed on package. Drain and rinse well with cool water.
  5. In a large mixing bowl combine pasta with turkey or possibly beef, Mozzarella cheese, red onion, green pepper, ripe olives, and Italian salad dressing.
  6. Cover and chill 1 hour, and serve cool.
  7. Kitchen Staff Tips: This salad recipe may be prepared with any type of pasta; just make sure to break it or possibly cut it into bite-size portions before cooking. A fresh spinach linguini is fantastic, as well as standard elbow macaroni or possibly bow tie pasta. It takes on a completely different character when prepared with broken Ramen noodles. The fun is to experiment, and enjoy preparing it. If you like, sprinkle your portion for serving with a little Parmesan cheese and freshly grnd black pepper, just prior to serving.
