Your prep time can be cut in half if you live where you can obtain a jar of New Orleans style olive salad at your local grocery. Boscoli's is my favorite but Rouses makes a decent version as well, buying the jarred salad will save you a lot of chopping time and all you have to do is toss it with your pasta, meat and cheese.
