Name: Suddenly! Pasta Salad
Prep time: 30 min
Total time: 30 min
Yield: 10 servings
Ingredients: 1 pound uncooked pasta; 3 cups cherry tomatoes, cut in half; 8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese balls, cut in half; 1 lb. salami or summer sausage, cut into cubes; 3/4 cup kalamata olives, sliced; 3/4 cup pepperoncini (optional, but do it); 1/2 cup sliced red onion; Dressing; 1 1/2 cups sunflower or other neutral oil; 1 cup white vinegar (white vinegar or red wine vinegar work); 2 tbs water; 1 tbs salt; 1 tablespoon sugar black pepper to taste; 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder; 1/2 tablespoon onion powder; 1 tablespoon dried oregano; 1/2 tablespoon dried parsley; 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme; 1/2 teaspoon dried basil

Cook pasta according to package directions, in salted water for more flavor. Allow to cool slightly and toss with a little oil to prevent sticking.

Blend up the dressing, or shake together in a jar.

Toss all ingredients together! I like to use about three-fourths of the dressing, and then I save the rest of the dressing to add to my leftovers.

Keep in the fridge for 2-3 days. I think it actually tastes best the day AFTER you make it.
