Everyone's favorite Italian spiral salad image

I made this pasta salad 1st about 12 yrs ago and ever since then everyone's always begging me to make a HUGE bowl of it. It's that good. You can add other veggies if u like, but I found that w/ the minimal ones I have in this recipe, even the kids love it.
