• 1 cup tri-colored spiral macaroni
• 1 cup sliced carrots
• 1 cup green beans cut into 2 inch pieces
• 1 small sweet onion cut into half circles
• 1/2 cup frozen peas
• 1/2 cup frozen corn
• 1/2 yellow squash, cut into medium sized cubes
• 1/2 red pepper sliced thinly
• 1/2 orange pepper sliced thinly
• other interesting veg that you like.
• 1/2 cruet of jennie's ff good seasons dressing mixture (see below)

All measurements are approximate.

Cook macaroni to al-dente. boil the carrot for a very short time in water just until it's slightly soft, do the same with the green beans and the yellow squash. Defrost the corn and peas or stick them in the boiling water for a second (frozen stuff next to noodles does something wierd). Mix everything together in a big mixing bowl and

refrigerate a couple of hours, preferably overnight.

Jennie's ff good season't dressing mixture

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• Buy _regular_ good seasons dressing mix (I assume it's fat free -- just spices, right? I'll be really upset if it isn't)
• (taragon or thyme eg) vinegars
• 50/50 mixture of (a possibly different) vinegar and water

follow the directions on the package to make it, using interesting (taragon or thyme eg) vinegars, **and** instead of adding oil, add a 50/50 mixture of (a possibly different) vinegar and water. Shake like crazy. My husband who hates f f stuff as a rule, loves this dressing. It's not globby like commercial ff italian.
