quick and easy to prepare

Cook the pasta in salted water according to the package instructions and then rinse. Dice the bell peppers and ham. Slice the canned carrots. Place the canned corn and peas in a colander and rinse. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, add the salad dressing, and stir well. Add a little water to the jar of salad dressing, shake, and add it to prevent the salad from becoming too thick. Season the salad with salt and pepper. Be careful with the salt, as the ham is already salty. It’s best to prepare the salad a few hours in advance so it can marinate properly. However, it’s also delicious straight away.
