Italian Pasta Salad
Ingredients
- 1 12 oz. box tricolor rotini or your desired pasta
- 1 16 oz. bottle Zesty Italian Dressing
- 1 4-6 oz. package Genoa salami quartered
- 1 red bell pepper small diced
- 1 green bell pepper small diced
- 1 yellow bell pepper small diced
- 1 cup baby carrots sliced into small pieces
- 1 cup cherry or grape tomatoes halved
- 1 8 oz. container mozzarella pearls found in deli; or small-diced fresh mozzarella
- 1 cup fresh curly or flat-leaf parsley finely chopped
Instructions
- Set a large pot of water to boil. Cook pasta according to package directions, usually 7-8 minutes for rotini. Drain and rinse under cold water. Return pasta to pot, away from heat.
- Pour in entire bottle of zesty Italian dressing (it may seem like too much at first, but the pasta will soak up a lot of the dressing as it cools). Add remaining ingredients and toss gently to combine.
- Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve, giving it a good stir before serving to blend ingredients and dressing thoroughly.
- Enjoy!
