Saucin' on a Budget - Summer Vegetable Pasta Salad

Sauce

• 1/2 cup Simon's Secret Sauce (any flavor)

Salad

• 12 oz. bowtie pasta
• 2 Roma tomatoes
• 1 yellow squash
• 1 zucchini
• 1 broccoli crown
• 1/2 red onion
• 1 12oz. jar roasted red peppers

• Set sauce aside
• Cook the bowtie pasta according to the package directions (boil 7-10 minutes or until tender), then drain in a colander. Rinse briefly to cool the pasta, then let it drain well.
• While the pasta is cooking and draining, prepare the vegetables. Chop the tomatoes, squash, zucchini, broccoli, and parsley. Slice the roasted red peppers (drained) and the red onion.
• Place the pasta and chopped vegetables in the largest bowl you have. Pour sauce over the salad. Stir the pasta and vegetables until everything is coated in dressing. Give it a taste and add salt or pepper, if needed. Serve immediately, or refrigerate until ready to eat.
