Recipe By: @PinchOfYum

Ingredients

  • 1 pound DeLallo Organic Whole Wheat Fusilli Pasta
  • 8 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese balls, cut in half
  • 1 pound summer sausage or salami, cut into chunks
  • 3 cups cherry tomatoes, cut in half
  • ¾ cup black olives, sliced
  • ¼ cup minced fresh parsley
  • sliced red onion, crumbled feta cheese, pepperoncini (optional)
  • 1½ cups Italian dressing (see notes)

Directions

  • Cook pasta according to package directions. Allow to cool slightly (and maybe toss with a little oil to prevent sticking).
  • Toss all ingredients together.
  • Keep in the fridge for 2-3 days. I think it tastes the best the day AFTER you make it.
