INGREDIENTS:
- 1 package (16 ounces) thin spaghetti, halved
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup cucumber, diced
- 1 cup (5 oz) thin salami slices, cut into small pieces
- 1 medium green pepper, diced
- 1/2 small red onion, diced
- 1/2 cup black olives, thinly sliced
- 1 bottle (8 ounces) Italian salad dressing
- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt & pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS:
- Cook spaghetti according to package directions, usually 1 minute less in time (el dente); drain. Add a drizzle of olive oil so pasta does not stick together. Refrigerate until cool.
- Place in a large bowl; add tomatoes, cucumber, salami, pepper, red onion, and olives.
- Combine remaining ingredients; pour over salad and toss to coat. Add the Parmesan cheese; gently stir together. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours; serve!
