Pasta Salad
2 cups of grapes, halved
1 roasted red pepper
1/2 cucumber, cut into 1/4 slices
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
2 Tablespoons of balsamic vinigar
3 cups of pasta, I used macaroni but you can use anything you'd like
Dressing
Dressing
1 cup olive oil
1 cup rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
2 Tablespoon fresh mint, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh chives, chopped
2 Tablespoon cilantro, chopped
1 Tablespoon lime juice
1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper
Combined all pasta salad ingredients in large bowl. Mix dressing separately and then add to pasta salad. I like to put more vinegar than a regular because everything really soaks up the liquids and more vinegar gives it a good fresh, sharp taste.

Everything can be changed to your own taste of course. ENJOY!
