Kraft Pasta Salad and vegetables

A small and healthy side dish to any big meal.

1 Box of Kraft Pasta Salad
1 Bag of frozen mixed vegetables
1 2 Quart pot

Cook the vegetables still frozen at the time the bag says, for this I used sit fry Publix mix which  is  cooked at eight minutes with 1/4th a cup of water in it. While that is starting, bring a two quart pot to boil. Mix in the pasta pouch into the boiling water and let it boil for twelve minutes on  high, stirring every few minutes.

At this point the first round of the mixed vegetables would be done, Take them out of the microwave, stir and place in if the bag says to, for my mix it says to add for another four minutes.

After the 12 minutes on the pasta are up drain them out and rinse with cold water, draining the rinse water, before adding the spice bag and mixing throughly. Once done add in the Parmesan cheese bag and serve with the mixed vegetables or mix them up together.
