SANDY'S CUCUMBER & TOMATO PASTA SALAD
My mother is a wonderful cook. She makes this pasta salad that I LOVE! It is simple and easy to make. It is not one of those nasty pasta salads that you think of getting at a family reunion.

Steps:
- Cook pasta according to package directions.
- Rinse pasta under cold water till cool, Drain WELL!
- Add chopped tomato, cucumber, and green onions.
- Mix in mayo, salt, and pepper.
- Chill for 30 minutes.
- Serve cold.
- My mother mentioned that sometimes she adds 2 tablespoons of flat leaf parsley, 1 teaspoon of lemon juice, and that she doesn't add the pepper till she is ready to eat it. I don't do any of that.

CUCUMBER, TOMATO AND PASTA SALAD
I make this recipe mostly in late Spring and especially during the Summer months using cucumbers and cherry tomatoes, fresh from my own garden. I usually make enough for at least two or three servings so I'll have something for a quick, easy brown-bag lunch or perhaps a light dinner. This recipe is easy on the budget, relatively healthy, and is a great side dish. I'll sometimes have a small bowl of this salad with a toasted slice of baguette bread, lightly brushed with extra virgin olive oil and rubbed with a fresh garlic clove and a sprinkling of oregano, and a glass of my favorite wine. Bon Appetit!!

Steps:
- Cook rotini as directed on package to al dante; Drain and run pasta under cold water.
- Drizzle italian dressing over pasta, mixing slowly so as not to break apart the pasta pieces. Add in tomatoes, black olives, cucumber, and 5 tablespoons of the feta cheese. Continue mixing ingredients until well-coated.
- Sprinkle remaining feta cheese over pasta mixture and top with almonds. (Instead of almonds I've used Melissa's Salad Sprinkles. This could not be located in RecipeZaar as a recognized ingredient but I wanted to record it in the directions as another option for a salad topper.).
- NOTE: If you don't care for feta cheese, try using Parmesan cheese instead. It tastes just as good and gives the salad a somewhat different flavor. Use only four to five tablespoons instead and mix in as given above.
