Instructions

  1. Prepare the Italian Dressing and refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. Cook the pasta according to package instructions (I always cook mine a couple of minutes less than instructed to keep it al dente). Drain pasta into a colander and run cold water over it to help cool it off quickly. 
  3. While the pasta is cooking, chop the bell pepper, tomatoes, olives, and red onion.
  4. Transfer the cooked and cooled pasta to a mixing bowl along with the remaining ingredients, including the Italian dressing.
  5. Stir the pasta salad until everything is well combined and coated in dressing. Taste for flavor and add sea salt and/or more Italian dressing to taste.
  6. Serve with your favorite entrees and enjoy!
