Ingredients
Pasta Salad
- 12 ounce box dry rotini pasta tri-color or regular
- 10 ounces grape tomatoes halved
- 2 cups chopped green bell peppers
- 8 ounces cubed cheese*
- 4 ounces sliced pepperoni sliced in half
- 1/4 cup sliced black olives
Dressing
- 3/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 3/4 cup red wine vinegar
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon dried sweet basil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Cook pasta according to box directions for al dente pasta.
- Rinse cooked pasta under cold water until pasta has cooled.
- Toss pasta with remaining pasta salad items in a large mixing bowl, and set aside.
- Whisk together dressing.
- Pour dressing over pasta salad, and toss to combine.
- Chill well until ready to serve. The flavors improve as the pasta salad sits.
Notes
- I like to use cheddar or marble cheddar. Feel free to use a cheese that you like.
- There isn't a lot of dressing for the salad. If you prefer a heavily dressed salad, double the dressing portion.
