Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups          elbow macaroni
1     package       frozen mixed vegetables - (16 oz)
                    = (cauliflower, carrots and snow pea pods)
2     cans          water-packed tuna - (6 oz ea)
4                   scallions
1/4   cup           minced flat-leaf parsley
3     tablespoons   fat-free Italian salad dressing
2     tablespoons   balsamic vinegar
2     teaspoons     dried basil
1/4   teaspoon      crushed red pepper flakes

Directions: one line for each direction. When saved the lines will be numbered.

In a large pot of boiling water, cook the macaroni 6 minutes, until almost tender. Add the mixed vegetables; return the water to a boil, then cook until the pasta and vegetables are just tender, about 1 minute longer. Drain and then rinse under cold running water.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the tuna, scallions, parsley, salad dressing, vinegar, basil and pepper flakes. Add the pasta and vegetables; toss well. Refrigerate, covered, until chilled, at least 2 hours.
