Best Easy Italian Pasta Salad

(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Salad

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. pasta such as fusilli, penne, or rotini (we use DeLallo whole wheat pasta! so yum.)
  • 8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese balls, cut in half
  • 1 lb. summer sausage or salami, cut into chunks
  • 3 cups cherry tomatoes, cut in half
  • 3/4 cup black olives, sliced
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
  • sliced red onion, crumbled feta cheese, pepperoncini (optional)
  • 11/2 cups Italian dressing (see notes)

Directions

  1. Cook pasta according to package directions. Allow to cool slightly (and maybe toss with a little oil to prevent sticking).
  2. Toss all ingredients together! TOLD YOU IT WAS SO EASY.
  3. Keep in the fridge for 2-3 days. I think it actually tastes best the day AFTER you make it.
