The first time I tasted this delicious salad was at my wedding, and I recall, even in the blur of that day, the recipe was in high demand. That was years ago and I'm still asked to bring it to cookouts and parties! —Sarah Ryan, Geneva, Ohio

For a minor 'change up' I'll use 'Summer Sausage and the round Terr-Okie ;>) snack strips. The 'smoked' nature of the flavor of both adds a real kick to the end product.

This is probably the one recipe I have made more times than any other. The only change I make is that I use garlic red wine vinegar. Everyone love it.

I could/would never add 2T of sugar to any salad dressing recipe; much to sweet. I will substitute a splash of floral red or white wine instead. Home-grown or cherry tomatoes are always best choices. Use fresh jalapeno, longitudinally-sliced and avoiding center seed core to escape "heat", is a better, more pungent choice than the more expensive, milder bell pepper. I find provolone too bland; therefore, my predominent cheese choices for almost all recipes is sharp cheddar and/or havarti dill. As far as pasta choice, shells, rigitoni, or fetticini have the desired bulk for satiation. Increase the salami, add ground pepper, and use a richly spiced olive for a satisfying punch!

Once I start eating this, I can't stop. The flavors blend so well together. I would not change a thing!

I despise mayonnaise, so I will only eat pasta salad if it's vinaigrette-based. This is wonderful! I like to add shredded carrots for more crunch and a little sweetness. And, I usually omit the pepperoni to save a few extra calories and it's just as delicious without.

Very good and a nice change from just using italian salad dressing. I forgot to add the cheese and it was still delicious.

Great pasta salad for the meat lovers! Hearty yet light without the mayo. I used olive oil instead of canola.

My family loves this salad. When I make it just for us, we eat it for several days. It's great for taking to work for lunch. The dressing recipe doesn't seem like it will make enough for the salad, but it is plenty. I doubled it one time and it was too oily.
