DELUXE PASTA SALAD

Deluxe Pasta Salad image

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) package tri-colored spiral pasta
1/2 package grape tomatoes, halved
1/2 package provolone cheese, quartered
1 package sliced pepperoni, quartered
1 large bell pepper (any color, I love yellow and orange), cut into 1 inch pieces
1 (10 ounce) can black olives, drained
1 (4 ounce) jar pimentos, drained
1 (8 ounce) bottle Italian salad dressing

Steps:

Cook pasta according to package directions. In a large bowl combine all ingredients except for salad dressing. Add half salad dressing and toss. If serving right away, add the remaining half bottle. If serving later, then pour and mix remaining dressing into pasta salad just before serving (as it get absorbed into the noodles too much if you do it all right away without serving it)
