A "Found" Dinner

Tonight's Dinner was a "found" meal from the fridge and pantry. Ingredients:

remains of two boxes of pasta
remains of a deli container of a medley of Mediterranean olives (Olices sliced, herbed oil set aside)
two stalks of celery
three plum tomatoes
leftover pepperoni (slice in thirds)
1/2 bag of frozen peas
a dozen stalks of asparagus
leftover fresh squeezed lemon juice from pie making
1/4 cup of creamy caesar salad dressing
fresh grated parmesan cheese

Cook pasta

cut up celery, olives, tomatoes and asparagus.

When pasta is done add asparagus to boiling water 30 sec. and then frozen peas (30 more sec.) Drain.

Toss into bowl with celery, olives, tomatoes and pepperoni and mix.

Combine lemon juice, Mediterranean herbed olive oil and creamy caesar dressing mixing well and then toss with ingredients in bowl. Garnish with parmesan cheese. And damn, it was good.
