This is my take on several different pasta salads I have tried. It's my daughter's favorite and I have taken it to several picnics and BBQs and it's always a bit hit. At serving time if pasta seems a little dry, drizzle with some olive oil and mix again.

Ingredients

  • 1 package tri-color rotini pasta , 16 ounce
  • 1 small red onion , diced
  • 1 cup diced roasted red peppers
  • 1 cup cubed mozzarella cheese
  • 1 jar marinated artichoke hearts , 6 ounce
  • 0.25 pounds salami , diced
  • 0.75 cups sliced stuffed green olives
  • 1 can sliced black olives , 4 ounce
  • 0.5 cups sliced pepperoncini peppers , Optional
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 0.25 teaspoons garlic powder , or to taste
  • 1 pinch seasoned salt , or to taste
  • ground black pepper to taste
  • 0.33 cups Italian-style salad dressing , such as Newman's Own®
  • 0.25 cups mayonnaise , such as Best Foods®
  • 0.5 cups shredded Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook rotini at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and run under cold water to cool.

  2. 2

    Mix rotini, red onion, roasted red peppers, mozzarella cheese, artichoke hearts, salami, green olives, black olives, pepperoncini peppers, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, seasoned salt, and black pepper in a large bowl.

    Whisk Italian-style dressing and mayonnaise together in a small bowl; pour over rotini mixture and toss to coat. Add Parmesan cheese and mix well. Refrigerate salad at least 2 hours before serving.
