Ingredients:
- 1 (12 oz) package tri-color rotini pasta
- ¾ pound Italian salami, finely diced
- (½) green bell pepper, sliced
- (½) red bell pepper, sliced
- (½) red onion, chopped
- 1 cup Italian-style salad dressing
- 1 (6 oz) can slice black olives
- 8 ounces small fresh mozzarella balls (ciliegine)
- (3) (.7 oz) packages dry Italian-style salad dressing mix
- ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Directions:
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add and cook rotini at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Then drain and rinse with cold water until cool.
Combine pasta, salami, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, onion, salad dressing, olives, and mozzarella cheese in a large bowl. Mix the dry salad dressing into pasta; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
Note:
Tri-color rotini does a great job keeping the cheese and Italian dressing in the crevices for full flavor, but you can use shells or other medium noodles you can find handy.
