This is my favorite way to make (and eat!) pasta salad in the whole world! I have been making it for years and always get asked for my recipe. So happy to share it with you all! *It makes alot, I'll warn ya, but you can make a smaller version by omitting the rotini and adding half the rest of the ingredients...but... it's highly...

Steps:
- 1. Cook pastas, set aside to cool a bit.
- 2. In large bowl or punch bowl, add rest of ingredients folding gently til well mixed.
- 3. Gently fold in pastas well.
- 4. Adjust seasonings to taste, meaning, add more salt, parmesan, etc., til it's to your own liking.
- 5. Serve immediately, or refrigerate.
- 6. *If serving this much later or the next day, you'll need to "refresh" this. Just add a bit more olive oil, salt and parmesan cheese before serving as the noodles suck up the oil and seasonings a bit.
- 7. *This salad is best room temp or even slightly warm.
