Recipe: Summer Pasta Salad

This pasta salad is one of my favorite potluck contributions. Because of the fact that the pasta has to be completely cool - at most room temperature - before assembling the salad, it’s a great dish to start at night and finish the next day. Here’s a recipe for a great Summer Pasta Salad:

Ingredients:

• 1 Lb smallish, shaped pasta (rotini, farfalle, macaroni, anything small and easily fork-able)
• 1/2 bottle of Italian dressing (not creamy)
• 4 T Salad Supreme
• 1 12 to 14 inch cucumber or two smaller ones, peeled and seeded
• 1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes, washed and halved
• 4 ounces Provolone cheese (this is usually 4 slices of prepackaged sliced cheese)
• 4 ounces salami (again, usually 4 slices of prepackaged sliced meat, but this can also be 4 ounces from a whole salami)
