Deli-Style Pasta Salad

Hot Weather = Cool Supper Salad
While you are reading the Photo Press I will be up at my son’s home near Wadena, MN. Grandma will be taking Hunter, age 10, and Taylor, age 7, to their swimming lessons while Mom and Dad work. I love Grandma time and it sounds like I will be doing some cooking, too, as son John said, “feel free to make the frozen ice cream dessert and homemade cinnamon rolls while you’re here.” Generous, isn’t he??

I love to make light main dish salads in the warm summer months! Here is one of my favorites. It’s another Taste of Home recipe!

Pasta Salad:
1 pkg (16 oz) tri color spiral pasta, cooked according to directions, then rinsed in cool water and drained
2 medium plum tomatoes, seeded and julienned
8 oz sliced salami, julienned
1 small red onion thinly sliced and separated
8 oz provolone cheese slices, cut in strips
1 jar (5 3/4 oz) stuffed olives, drained and sliced
1 can (2 1/2) sliced ripe olives, drained
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 bottle (8 oz) Italian salad dressing

Mix altogether and refrigerate overnight.
