Pasta Salad

1.5 box macaroni - the different colored ones is the most fun
italian dressing
olives
broccoli
carrots
pickles
salt
pepper

Cook the macaroni according to box instructions.  Drain off water and then place into a new dish.  Add italian dressing and place in fridge to cool.  After a few hours, mix in olives, broccoli, carrots, pickles, salt & pepper, and any remaining dressing you feel is necessary.  Let sit in the fridge until you are ready to serve.  The longer it sits (within reason) the better it tastes.
