I love pasta! The good thing about pasta salad you can throw anything you have on hand in it and call it good. This is definitely nothing fancy, but satisfying. Throw it together Pasta Salad
1 box of Pasta of choice
1 bottle of Italian dressing of choice
1/4 lb of Large Pepperoni, stacked and cut into quarters
1 can of medium Black Olives, drained
1 can of Cannellini Beans, drained and rinsed
2 large tomatoes, cut into quarters, seeded and diced
2 tbsp of Poppy Seeds
1 cup of Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp. Red Pepper Flakes
1/2 tsp Cracked Black Pepper
8 Basil leaves, cut into ribbons for garnish and flavor
1. Prepare pasta according to directions, drain and rinse with cold water and drain real good.
2. In large bowl, add pasta, dressing, red pepper flakes, black pepper, poppy seeds, give it a good stir until fully mingled together. Then add the last cast members of Olives, Beans, Tomatoes, give it another stir. Mmmm..starting to look good. Finish off with Parmesan Cheese and Basil leaves. Give it a good blend and let set for a good hour. You can eat it right away, but the flavors mingle more and explode into happiness the longer they sit together.
I like making this with Thin Spaghetti and adding a little tomato paste, green peppers, and anything that makes your hair blow. Mmmmm..enjoy! I will for lunch Manana!
