Italian Pasta Salad | this pasta salad is so good, it’ll be your new favorite salad all summer long! 

🥗 Pasta Salad
1 pound pasta of choice 
8oz mozzarella, diced 
6oz black olives, sliced 
2 roasted red peppers, diced 
8-12 peperoncini, sliced 
1 small red onion, diced 
Handful of fresh basil, torn 
Freshly grated parm 

🌿 Dressing 
3/4 cup red wine vinegar 
3/4 cup olive oil
1 tbsp dried basil
1 tbsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes 
1 tbsp honey 
2 garlic cloves, grated 
Freshly grated parm, as much as you want 
Salt & pepper, to taste. 

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, and cook pasta according to package instructions. Then drain, and set aside to cool. 

Add all the dressing ingredients to a base of a blender and blend until emulsified, then set aside. 

Add the cooked pasta to a large bowl along with the remaining ingredients. Pour over the dressing and mix until combined. Transfer to the fridge until you’re ready to eat. It’s best if set aside in the fridge for a few hours to really chill. 

Right before service, top with freshly grated parm.
