  • 1 cup creamy dressing
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente.
  2. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process, allowing it to cool.
  3. Chop the bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Whisk together the ingredients for the creamy dressing in a separate bowl until smooth.
  5. Combine the cooled pasta, chopped vegetables, and dressing in a large bowl, tossing well.
