PENNE PASTA SALAD

 Having a great sunny day today, my husband and I decided that we'll have a cook out in the back yard. While he was cooking the marinated chicken on the barbecue I was busy in the kitchen making this delectable but easy pasta salad which I know he'll help himself for seconds. This recipe is for two but there is plenty to around.

1/2 lb.  Penne pasta
1/2  of fresh green, red & orange pepper, diced
2 cloves of garlic finely chopped
7-10 Black olives sliced
1 Small bunch of broccoli fleurettes, trimmed1/4 Cup of  grated Parmesan cheese
Olive oil and vinegar
* salt & pepper to taste

Cook pasta according to package directions and add cleaned broccoli fleurettes at the last 5 minutes. In the meantime, in a large bowl combine peppers, garlic, cheese and olives. Toss all with oil and vinegar. Drain pasta and immediately and pour over the vegetables, mix well. Cover with plastic wrap until ready to eat. Enjoy.
