Italian Pasta Salad
"Italian pasta salad hits all the right spots with an array of colorful vegetables for crunch and texture alongside tender noodles and tangy dressing. This bright and colorful Italian pasta salad is loaded with a rainbow of crisp fresh veggies, salami, pepperoni, and mozzarella pearls then tossed in a zesty Italian dressing. I’m a sucker for Italian starters like fresh Caprese salad and Antipasto, but this Italian pasta salad hits all the right spots with an array of colorful vegetables for crunch and texture alongside tender noodles and tangy dressing.
