Spaghetti Salad

1lb cooked spaghetti
2 med tomatoes, chopped
1 med bell pepper, diced
1 med red onion, sliced thin
1 cucumber sliced thin
1 pkg Good Seasons Italian dressing mix
1 part red wine vinegar (I do 1/2 cup of each)
1 part oil
1 jar Salad Supreme seasoning

After cooking the spaghetti, rinse with cool water. Put into a large serving bowl and pour some olive oil over it so it doesn't stick together. Allow to cool in fridge while you chop the veggies. Mix dressing ingredients together and pour over pasta. Add veggies and stir again. Allow to sit for at least an hour before eating. Pour a little more olive oil over and stir again just before eating if necessary.

I have made this a lot! Yes, the WHOLE jar of Salad Supreme goes in. It makes the best pasta salad! I like to use corkscrew pasta instead of spaghetti because it's easier to eat. I have a very ripe avocado at the moment so I'm going to add that and see how it tastes.

Years ago we used to cater in lunch. My favorite thing was the spaghetti salad. Try as I might, I couldn't duplicate the recipe. Couldn't until my friend Annie gave me this recipe. The secret? Salad Supreme!!
