1 1/2 cups whole wheat pasta, uncooked (use your favorite pasta shape)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
3 cups fresh vegetables, washed and chopped. Any of these vegetables will work great: carrots, celery, broccoli, green pepper, cucumber, onion and many more.
Wash hands with soap and water. Cook pasta according to package directions. In a small saucepan, make dressing by combining vinegar, water, sugar, vegetable oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, dill weed and dried parsley. Bring to a boil then remove from heat and cool. In a large bowl, combine pasta and vegetables. Pour cooled dressing mixture over pasta and vegetables, stir well and refrigerate 3 to 4 hours before serving.
