  • Prep: 10 mins
  • Cook: 10 mins
  • Yields: 10-12 Servings

Ingredients

12 ounces Mueller’s Tri-Color Rotini

1 cup chunky salsa

1/2 cup red wine vinaigrette

2 medium tomatoes, chopped

1 large cucumber, not peeled, halved lengthwise, seeded and thinly sliced

2 stalks celery, sliced

Directions

1Cook pasta according to package directions; rinse with cold water, drain well and set aside to cool.

2In a small bowl, stir together salsa and red wine vinaigrette.

3In a large bowl, combine pasta, tomatoes, cucumber, and celery. Pour dressing over pasta and vegetables and toss together.

4Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until chilled.

Cook's Tip: To easily seed cucumbers, slice them in half lengthwise and use a teaspoon to gently scrape out and discard the seeds.  Add two sliced green onions, or sprinkle with 2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro, if desired.  Choose mild, medium, or hot salsa, as desired, or season to taste with a few drops of hot pepper sauce.
