Pizza Pasta Salad

"I love experimenting with cold pasta salads. This one was such a success I kept running back to the fridge to get more, so I think I'll wait a little bit before making another batch. Measurements are a guessing game for me 'cuz I never measure anything (you shouldn't either) and this always turns out killer !"

  1. One word: yummy!! This was amazing! Loved all the flavours together, they were amazing. This is definitely my kind of salad, will be making this again!
     
  2. Very good! I thought the pasta absorbed a little too much of the dressing so it was kind of dry. Since I had made the salad for a potluck, I didn't have the bottle to add more. However it is a very colorful salad and easy to prepare.
     
  3. This is a really, really good salad. I used corkscrew pasta and about 1 cup of regular Italian pepperoni. I also added a lot more grated cheese. I didn't know whether or not to drain the artichokes, so added them with the marinade. It worked well. Next time I may add some more vegetables such as green pepper, broccoli, caulliflower, etc. I particularly liked the zip that the pizza seasoning added. I'll be making this one a lot.
