Vegeterian Tips: If the above fast food tips do not work for a fast food restaurant that you are at, then just get a meatless burger. Ask for a Big Mac or Whopper without the meat that is the bun, lettuce, tomato, cheese, pickles, and mayonnaise.

- 8 cups of pasta with grooves (ziti,etc)
- 30 sundried tomatoes (not packed in oil)

- 1 tablespoon of each of salt and pepper (or to taste)
Directions:
Place the pasta in a large sauce pan and fill with water until just covering the pasta. Bring to a boil.
While the pasta is cooking, place the sundried tomatoes in a shallow bowl covering them with water. Microwave for two minutes or until reconstitued and soft. Carefully pat dry and chop into small pieces.

In a blender, food processor or hand blender add the sundried tomatoes,
olives, olive oil (if wanted), herbs and spices.
