When I have guests coming over or a busy day ahead, I like to make this salad because I prepare it the day before. Ingredients:
1 package (16 ounces) medium pasta shells |
1/4 pound hard salami, cubed |
1/4 pound sliced pepperoni, halved |
1 block (4 ounces) provolone cheese, cubed |
4 medium tomatoes, seeded and chopped |
4 celery ribs, chopped |
1 medium green pepper, chopped |
1/2 cup sliced pimiento-stuffed olives |
1/2 cup sliced ripe olives |
1 bottle (8 ounces) italian salad dressing |
2 teaspoons dried oregano |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. Cook pasta according to package directions; drain pasta and rinse in cold water. 2. Place in a gallon-size resealable plastic bag; add the salami, pepperoni, cheese, vegetables and olives. Add the salad dressing, oregano and pepper; seal and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Transfer to a serving bowl. Yield: 12-16 servings. |
