I cheated and used a cup of italian dressing instead of making it from scratch and let the whole mix sit overnight in the fridge for the pasta to absorb the dressing. fab!

While I thought the pepperoni was a bit unusual, it gave the salad both flavor and a nice tangy bite. I didn't use 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (too American). Instead I used fresh pecorino Romano. The people to whom I server it, really liked it. Also instead of 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, I use 4 cloves of garlic. My grandchildren (i miei niptini) love pepperoni so I'll make it for them. I make pizza, fatta a casa (home made) with all fresh ingredients. For cheese, I only use grated pecorino Romano. I call it my sunburst pizza because one can see the bright red tomato sauce. Fresh garlic and as the pizza is almost done, a few sprigs of fresh basil.
