8 ounce mini penne, elbow, or ditalini pasta
3 bell peppers, any color, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces, about 4 cups
2 cups grape tomatoes, halved
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup red wine vinegar

Steps

Bring a large pot of water to a boil along with 1 tablespoon kosher salt. Cook the pasta according to the package directions. Drain, but do not rinse the pasta.
While the pasta is cooking, prep the bell peppers and tomatoes. Combine the oil, vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl. When the pasta has been drained, add it to the mixing bowl and toss well. Add the peppers and tomatoes.
Toss everything together to combine well. Taste the salad and add more salt and pepper, as needed. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
