Off topic, since I can't contribute re: camping (our idea of camping is a Holiday Inn), but here's a great summer recipe:

TECHNICOLOR PASTA SALAD

2 (12-oz) packages of rainbow rotini, cooked al-dente
1 bunch broccoli flowerets
6 green onions, chopped
2 ribs celery, chopped
1 can black olives, pitted
1/4 cup stuffed green olives
1 can artichokes
1 green bell pepper, coarsely chopped
1 red bell pepper, coarsely chopped
1 yellow bell pepper, coarsely chopped
1-1/2 tablespoons garlic powder
1-1/2 tablespoons parsley
1-1/2 tablespoons seasoned salt
salt & pepper to taste
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 cup olive oil
6 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

Combine all ingredients and mix well. Refrigerate for 24 hours.

Serves 14 to 16.

(our idea of camping is a Holiday Inn),

My kind of camping!!!!!!!

The recipe sounds wonderful!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing.

I'm going to have to post next Friday's thread on Thursday night because I'm going to be going up to my SIL's in Dover for the day/night. She and 2 friends are having the grand openning of their new gift shop and I want to give her my support.........

But anyway - your recipe has given me the inspiration for next week's thread - Summer Cooking Part I!!!!!!!!!

My hubby's family are the campers. My family is a beach house kinda camper too. In fact tomorrow, I am taking the kids (hubby won't go and sit on his ass on a hot beach) with my mom (my dad has too much "work" to do), and one of my sister's family (the other sister and her hubby also refuse to go sit on their asses for a week) to Virginia beach. They rented a house on the beach and are taking their nanny, naturally, although that will be a huge help to me. Actually the nanny going was on my insistance. Hehehe... Take me away again to margaritaville.....


Now that I have gone camping, it is quite fun! Try it sometime!
