We are fixing to have some hot weather ahead. I will have to check the
dates first but I will plan to make this for the day that it hits because it
is served cold. And by some stroke of luck, I have all of the ingredients!
For some reason, I was possessed to place an order on Amazon Fresh for
produce and I got pretty much all of what I needed. They were out of red
onions. I had tried to order them. I could have gotten a 2 pound bag but I
only wanted a single onion and they were out of those. So I got shallots
instead. I will be subbing those in. Basically it's cooked spaghetti mixed
with sliced black olives and diced vegetables with an Italian dressing. The
vegetables called for are Roma tomatoes, zucchini, yellow squash, assorted
bell pepper, red onion and cucumber. I will probably add some celery too
because we like it and I have it. There is paprika and parmesan cheese
added to the dressing and cubes of cheddar added to the salad. Because I
can't have cheese, I will leave that out but will add it to the other
portions as I serve it. I will probably also add some beans to it so I can
have protein. Either kidney and/or white beans. Whatever I have. I did
restock some of my stockpile but am running low on beans. Or, hmmm... I
may even cook up some dried ones if I have those.

I had originally ordered some of the produce to serve as hot vegetables with
meat. I may save a little out to do that as I will have more than I need.
I love a mix of carrots, bell peppers and red onion with a lot of black
pepper.

I am just happy that someone posted this recipe on Facebook. I had the news
on and they mentioned the hot weather coming. I was like... Dang! And I
just bought all of those vegetables! Oh and... If you have Amazon Prime,
deliveries are free now for groceries if you order $50. I just didn't feel
like going to the store. I placed the order that evening and got it prior
to 6:00 a.m. so it worked out quite well for me. So far I have never gotten
any bad produce from them. And I have been having trouble finding good
onions or even any shallots in the stores.
