Sure! I don't measure anything so bear with me:
Ham - either cut into cubes or shredded into bite sized pcs)
Grape tomatoes - halved or
regular beefsteak type (I like them juicy, flavors pasta well) or you can even use canned diced.
green pepper - diced
Any type of pasta you prefer, elbow, rotini or penne, etc.,
parmesan cheese.
onion - optional
salt/pepper
garlic powder
parsley
1/2 Hellman's mayo and 1/2 plain yogurt (to make it a little more healthy)
green onion, white and green parts - optional - gives it a fresh flavor
You can add other veggies as well, cut up broccoli, celery, asparagus, cucumber-really good on a hot day!
Cook pasta, rinse with warm water,
cut up ham, tomatoes, green pepper,
In a large bowl, mix everything except pasta and season to taste. I make sure that the mix is really wet because the pasta and cheese will absorb the moisture. Taste before adding salt, parmesan may make it salty enough. Toss really well and then add pasta.
I substitute tuna for the ham also, leave out garlic powder.
Enjoy!
