2002 Cowley Cookbook

4 cups cooked pasta wheels
rib celery, sliced thin
raw carrot, scrubbed and sliced into thin match sticks
medium onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
5 radishes, sliced thin
can (6 1/2 oz) drained tuna (water packed)
3/4 cup dressing (see recipe, below)

Toss all ingredients in a large salad bowl and chill.  Salad can be made the night before and refrigerated. If you want to take it easy, just slice all the veggies with a food processor.  This pasta salad gets its name from the shape of the pasta, but you could just as easily use shells and rename it seashell salad, etc.

Dressing:

1 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 tsp honey
2/3 cup brown rice vinegar
freshly ground pepper or 1 tsp salt
1 garlic clove, mashed

Combine all ingredients and shake well or blend. Refrigerate. Keeps for up to a week. makes a little less than two cups.
