I made this for a graduation party picnic. It was really good. I had misplaced the recipe for awhile, or I would have posted it sooner.

How To Make mediterranean pasta salad

1
Cook pasta per package directions. Five minutes, before pasta is done, add broccoli. Bring back to a boil, and cook, until the pasta is done. Drain and place in a large bowl. While pasta is still warm, add tomatoes, artichoke hearts (if desired), cheese, olives, salad dressing and herbs, and stir to combine. Serve warm or refrigerate for a cold salad.
