Dressing
1/3 cup white wine vinegar
1 tbsp olive oil, extra light
1 tsp dill weed
1/4 tsp salt and dry mustard
1/8 tsp pepper

Salad
5 oz (2 cups) Rotini pasta

1 cup cut 1 inch fresh green beans
1/2 cup red bell pepper strips
4 green onions, sliced (1/2 cup)
8 cherry tomatoes, quartered

In a jar, combine all dressing ingredients, and shake well. Cook pasta in 3 quarts boiling water to desired doneness, adding carrots and green beans during the last 2-4 minutes or pasta cooking time. Drain. Rinse thoroughly with cold water to cool rapidly.

In a large serving bowl, combine cooled pasta mixture and remaining salad ingredients. Pour dressing over salad; toss gently.
