Rasta Pasta Salad

1 lb     5-color rotini (or 3-color pasta if you can't
         find 5-color) cooked and cooled

The remaining ingredients can be added in any ratio
depending on your preference: 
1 can hearts of palm, sliced and/or 
1 can water packed artichoke hearts, quartered
kalamata olives (or just plain old black olives) 
         pitted and halved
fresh mushrooms, cut into chunks
red and yellow tomatoes, cut into chunks
red, yellow and green peppers cut into strips
asparagus?  (optional)
Chunks of mozzarella cheese (optional)

Balsamic Vinegar Dressing:
Balsamic vinegar and olive oil in a ratio you can live
with, plus dry mustard, a little bit of honey, crushed
rosemary leaves, and pressed garlic.  Mix it all
together and let it stand for a while so the flavors
blend. 

Put it on the salad and stir.
