This is a delicious pasta salad that I have prepared for potluck dinners and it is always a big hit. I also add some of my favorites ingredients like spinach leaves, garlic, roasted red peppers, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and feta cheese. Enjoy this recipe. Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) package pasta (can use bow ties, ziti or penne) |
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained |
1 (12 ounce) jar roasted red peppers |
1 (7 ounce) can black olives, chopped |
1 garlic clove, minced |
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled (or use mozzarella cheese) |
4 roma tomatoes, chopped |
1/4 lb pepperoni, cut into strips |
3/4 cup olive oil |
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar |
1/2 teaspoon black pepper |
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold running water until cool.
2. Mix together: spinach, red peppers, olives, garlic, cheese, tomatoes and pepperoni strips.
3. Combine in large bowl, pasta and vegetable mixture. Pour in olive oil, balsamic vinegar and black pepper and mix well together.
