Lemon & Dill Pasta Salad

This is a light and easy pasta salad. It is a good "base" upon which you can easily add additional ingredients to make it your own. Swap out the dill for fresh basil...use one red pepper and one green pepper...add in chopped hard boiled eggs...the variations are limitless!
