Muffuletta Pasta Salad Recipe - Blue Plate Mayonnaise image

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounces ditalini pasta (or elbow macaroni)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 red bell pepper, roasted and diced
2 ounces (about 1/2 cup) sliced salami, cut into strips
2 ounces (about 1/2 cup) sliced mortadella, cut into strips
2 ounces (about 1/2 cup) sliced capicola (or more salami)
2 ounces (about 1/2 cup) sliced provolone cheese, cut into strips
1 1/2 cups New Orleans-style Italian green olive salad
1/2 cup Blue Plate® Mayonnaise
1/8 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup chopped parsley
Salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste

Steps:

Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop it from overcooking; place in a large bowl and toss the pasta with olive oil to prevent sticking. Add red bell pepper, salami, mortadella, capicola, provolone and olive salad and mix to combine. In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise and vinegar and pour over pasta. Add parsley and mix to combine. Season to taste. (Be careful not to over-salt as the meats and olive salad already contain salt.)
