Summer Salads Part 2

I am lovin' that it is Friday! Really and truly I want to go on a road trip. I drove Zac to Payson yesterday for a basketball tournament.... the sun was shining, music blasting, and I just wanted to keep going! I'm just sayin...

Anyway - today's salad is a delicious pasta salad! I am all about things that taste yummy and fix quickly. This salad fits both!

Pasta Salad

Start with 1 -2 pkgs multi-colored Rotini Pasta

Take a gigantic saucepan and fill with water

Bring to a boil and add the pasta

Flavor the water with a pinch of salt and drizzle of olive oil

After the pasta is tender, drain and allow to cool

Place in a large bowl

Slice pepperoni and white cheese

You can use Mozzarella Provolone, I used Swiss cheese

Find your beloved bottle of 'Cheese Fantastico'

Pour about 1/2 the bottle on mixture and toss

Now get creative...

Add veggies or artichokes or olives

Whatever sounds good!

Mix the remaining dressing in the salad and top with

freshly grated Parmesan Cheese

Refrigerate for several hours

Add a little salt and pepper right before serving!
