- 1 (8 ounce) bottle Kraft sun-dried tomato salad dressing
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
- Cook pasta according to directions, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- While pasta is cooking, chop tomato, peppers and onion into very small pieces. Add olives and mix.
- Drain Rotini; rinse with cold water for about 3 minutes.
- Mix pasta with tomato, peppers, onion and olives.
- Refrigerate for about 1/2 an hour.

- If you have left overs, you will have to "re-wet" salad by adding a little more salad dressing the next day, especially if you substitute the dressing with a fat-free dressing.
