Steps:
- SALAD: Cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Rinse and drain the pasta and allow for it to cool to room temperature.
- In a large bowl combine the prepared pasta, chopped artichoke hearts, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, capers, scallions, and parsley. Toss to combine. At this point, you can store the pasta salad in the refrigerator until ready to serve if you want to serve it cold.
- DRESSING: In a small bowl, mix together the pesto, olive oil, sun-dried tomato oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Stir to combine. The dressing can be refrigerated until you're ready to serve the salad.
- ASSEMBLY: When you're ready to serve, add the arugula, parmesan cheese, and pine nuts into the salad and toss to combine. Dress with the prepared dressing and taste test for seasonings. Adjust to preference.

Steps:
- In a food processor or blender, pulse sun-dried tomatoes, lemon juice, garlic, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper 5-6 times, until combined. Scrape the sides of the bowl or blender.
- With the mixer running, drizzle in olive oil in a steady stream. Add fresh oregano leaves and pulse to gently chop them up. You should have about 3/4 cup of vinaigrette. Set aside.
- Cook pasta in salted, boiling water until al dente. Drain and rinse with cool water or lightly-coat with olive oil and spread out onto baking sheets to cool.
- While the pasta is cooking, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add artichoke hearts and a pinch or two of kosher salt and black pepper. Gently sauté for 5-8 minutes, flipping the artichokes sparingly, until they're light golden brown in parts.
- Deglaze the pan with a small splash of water or white wine and cook for 1 minute, scraping up any brown bits on the bottom.
- Remove from heat and stir in shallots, capers, sun-dried tomatoes, and red pepper flakes (if using). Set aside.
- When pasta is cooked and cooled, toss with the sun-dried tomato vinaigrette, artichoke mixture, pine nuts, herbs, and Pecorino Romano. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pasta salad is best enjoyed at room temperature.

Steps:
- Combine all of the dressing ingredients and whisk together until emulsified. Alternatively, use a food processor, blender, or immersion blender. Taste test the dressing and season with salt and pepper if required.
- Cook pasta in salted water until al dente, then drain and rinse until cool.
- In a large bowl, mix together the pasta, mozzarella, olives, parsley, artichoke hearts, and sun dried tomatoes.
- Pour 3/4 of the dressing on top of the pasta and mix well. If you need more dressing, add a bit at a time to get the consistency just right. The remaining dressing can be served on the side or saved in the fridge for a green salad during the week.
- The pasta salad flavor will taste much better if chilled for at least an hour before serving. Enjoy!
