Zesty Italian Pasta Salad Recipe

This pasta salad has some kick to it, and has been a hit every time I make it.
I have always made it without exact measurements, so just estimate what seems right for your situation!

Ingredients
- Whole-wheat rotini noodles
- 1/2 of a bottle of Newman's Own Caesar Dressing, adding more as necessary.
- 1/2 package of Pepperoni
- Small can of black olives
- Red pepper flakes to taste
- Small can of sliced mushrooms
- Shredded parmesan cheese (like to freshly shred my own)
- Black pepper to taste
Directions
- Cook rotini noodles according to package directions, make sure to drain excess water. While noodles are cooking, saute mushrooms and olives.
- Quarter chop pepperoni slices
- Add desired amount of Caesar dressing to the noodles, adding more to taste if it seems too dry.
- Mix in pepperoni slices, olives and mushrooms.
- Add red pepper flakes and black pepper to taste. You may need to add more Caesar dressing at this point as the other ingredients soak up the dressing.
- Chill noodle mixture in refrigerator for at least one hour. I like this as cold as possible. Once you are ready to serve, mix in parmesan cheese and check level of dressing. As this sits in the fridge, it can get a bit dry. Add more Caesar if necessary. This salad has a lot of flavor and tastes great!
