100% would make again

I take this fresh-tasting, colorful salad to potluck dinners throughout the year, since everyone who tries it loves it. The pasta, garbanzo beans and pepperoni make it a nice hearty dish. -Agnes Bulkley, Hicksville, New York

I have made this numerous times for gatherings or just for us. Sometimes I substitute vinegar for the lemon juice.  Very good.
