I made this for a work potluck and it was super good. I don't nomally make things so high in fat, but who can resist salami and pepporoni? Everyone loved it and I'm making it again for our Thanksgiving get together. The best part is you can make it the night before, and it's so flavorful and pretty.

This is a great salad. I add a T. of pesto in the dressing as I shake it up before adding. I make colored fusilli for the pasta. Also, it's a great way to use up veggies from the garden. I was able to cut up a zucchini and use steamed green beans in the salad this week. This was a great way to use up garden veggies.

Yeah, this is really good! I used cheddar instead of provolone, and black olives instead of salami. It makes more than 10 servings. Thanks, Brenda!

This is the best pasta salad ever! I have been making it for several years now. It's so much better than the pasta salads that some people throw together with bottled Italian salad dressing. I wouldn't change a thing about this recipe! It's perfect!
