Pizza Pasta Salad

I made this salad for the get-together with my family over Memorial Day. Everyone said they loved it! My brother-in-law, Travis said it tasted just like a supreme pizza. I have to agree!

Pizza Pasta Salad

12 ounces tricolor spiral pasta
2 cups cubed part-skim mozzarella cheese
1 large green pepper, chopped
1 large sweet red pepper, chopped
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
2 cans (2-1/4 ounces each) sliced ripe olives, drained
6 green onions, sliced
3-1/2 ounces sliced pepperoni, halved
1/2 cup canola oil
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper


Cook pasta according to package directions; rinse with cold water and drain well. In a large serving bowl, combine the cheese, peppers, mushrooms, olives, green onions, pepperoni and pasta.

In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining ingredients. Pour over salad; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate until serving. Toss before serving.
