Step 1

Add all the ingredients for the dressing into a mason jar or small bowl and mix together well, then set aside.

Step 2

Cook the pasta to al dente according to the package instructions (add in a few tablespoons of salt to the water for more flavor).  While the pasta is cooking, start preparing the other ingredients. Drain the pasta once cooked, and allow it to cool while you finish prepping the other ingredients.

Step 3

Add the cucumber, tomatoes, salami, olives, pepperoncini, artichoke hearts, onions, mozzarella cheese, chopped parsley, and pasta to a large mixing bowl.

Step 4

Then toss all the ingredients together and gently fold in the Italian dressing.

Step 5

Allow it to sit for 3-4 hours before serving, or even better make it a day in advance and store in refrigerator until serving.  That way the pasta and veggies have time to soak up all the delicious flavor from the dressing.
