Instructions
First, cook the pasta according to the directions on the package, adding a generous tablespoon of kosher salt to the water during cooking. Just before cooking the noodles, add the broccoli to the pan. Let the broccoli boil for about 30 seconds, then drain everything in a large colander. Rinse well with cold water.
Then, place the drained pasta, broccoli, cucumber, peppers, onion, tomatoes and marinade liquid in a large bowl. Mix well to coat well. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, stir again and taste. Adjust the seasonings as needed. Cover and refrigerate until ready to eat. Stir again before serving. Happy Cooking Time.
