1 c. vegetable oil
1/3 c. sugar
2 tsp. salt
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 3/4 c. vinegar
1/2 to 1 tsp. celery seed
1 tsp. oregano leaves

Mix all ingredients together until sugar is dissolved. Pour the amount you wish over cooked cool pasta and chopped raw vegetables of your desire. Black olives are great included. Chill overnight.

NOTE: When mixed together without the pasta, the vegetables and dressing will keep a week in the refrigerator.
