Ingredients

• Dressing:
• pound thin spaghetti, broke into 3-4" pieces
• 3 Roma tomatoes, diced
• 1 medium zucchini, diced
• 1 medium yellow zucchini squash, diced
• 1 green pepper, diced
• 1 red pepper, diced
• 1 red onion, diced
• 1 cucumber, diced
• 2 (2.25 oz) cans sliced olives, drained
• 8 oz cheddar cheese, cut into small cubes
• 1 (16 oz) bottle Italian dressing (I love Wishbone Robusto Italian)
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
• Topping:
• 1 teaspoon Salad Supreme or Johnny's Seasoing (this is optional, but I love the little flavor boost it adds!)

Preparation

Step 1

Cook spaghetti according to package directions, then rinse in cold water and drain. Set aside and let cool.
Place tomatoes, zucchini, squash, peppers, onion, cucumber, olives, and cheese in a large bowl. Add cooled spaghetti noodles and mix well.
In a small bowl, mix together dressing, Parmesan cheese, paprika, garlic powder. Pour on top of the spaghetti and vegetables and mix until completely combined. Sprinkle the top with Salad Supreme.
Let sit in the fridge for at least 2 hours before serving (this salad gets better with time, as the flavors meld together).
