Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

16 ounces rotini pasta, pasta. cooked according to package directions. (I like the spinach or wheat or red variety because it is pretty)
12 ounces marinated artichoke hearts (oil included... do not drain)
8 ounces pimientos (well drained) or 8 ounces roasted red peppers (well drained)
8 ounces of sliced black olives (well drained)
8 ounces swiss cheese (cubed into little tiny bits)
8 ounces feta cheese (you can buy this pre-crumbled and ready to go)
8 ounces green olives (well drained)
8 ounces pepperoni (you can buy it in a convenient package already sliced)
olive oil

Steps:

Cook the pasta. Drain it well and rinse under cold running water to stop the cooking process for a minute or so.
Dump all of it into a big bowl and mix. Refrigerate for a day.
Be sure and include the oil from the marinated artichoke hearts! If it is too dry for your tastes add a few tablespoons of olive oil to loosen it up a bit.
This makes a lot of cold pasta salad in 20 minutes!
