Ingredients

350 gm large pasta shells

1 tbsp olive oil

1 medium carrot

1 small green capsicum

125gm beef slices

270gm canned corn kernels, drained

2 tbsp sour cream

1/2 cup French dressing

Method

Cook pasta in a large pan of boiling water until just tender; drain, rinse under cold water, drain again. Place in a large mixing bowl and combine with oil. Cut the carrot in half — lengthwise, then into thin strips. Cut capsicum and beef into strips. Add the carrot, capsicum, beef and corn to pasta. Mix well. Place sour cream and dressing in a screw top jar; shake well. Transfer salad to a serving bowl, pour over dressing. Serve at room temperature.

NOTE

To save time, cook the pasta before hand and refrigerate until required. This salad is a good way of using up leftovers. Include cold chicken, cooked or canned fish, cheese or any vegetables
