Sunshine Pasta Salad
"This recipe is from my Land-O-Lakes recipe book. It is so refreshing, and makes for a very pretty presentation. If you grow your own tomatoes, you'll enjoy this too. Nothing like fresh garden grown tomatoes. Serve this at a dinner party and your guests will be impressed.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
Please Note: Do not use any long string pasta, like spaghetti, linguine, or fettuccine pasta with this recipe. Use short pasta."
