- 1 can (4.25 ounces) sliced black olives, drained

Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add rotini pasta and cook until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain water. Rinse pasta with cold water to cool. Set aside.

Notes
*I use the packages of pre-cooked bacon pieces to save on time.
*When ready to serve you can toss with a little extra milk if it seems dry.
