1/2 of a container of salad tomatoes

Instructions

Toss cooked and cooled pasta with Italian dressing. The pasta will absorb the dressing as it sits in the

refrigerator. If you are preparing the night before, add more dressing so the salad isn't "dry" the next

day. Add diced cucumbers, diced peppers, pepperoni and olives if using. Stir to combine. Add

mozzerella pearls just before serving. Serve chilled at your next gathering.
