Sorcha - I'm not picky - any recipe for food is fine with me.

One box of pasta - whichever type you like in your salads, cooked according to package directions.

Scallions, cherry tomatoes, celery, cucumbers - cut up.

One small can of mandarin oranges, drained.

1/4 cup each of olive oil, soy sauce, wine vinegar. (use ginger flavored soy sauce if you can find it).

Mix the liquid ingredients in the bottom of a large bowl. Add the cooked pasta and toss until the pasta absorbs the soy sauce and is a light tan color. Add the rest of the ingredients and chill it for an hour. Optional ingredients: a can of tuna or shrimp, or some leftover chicken.
