Greek Penne Pasta Salad image

I saw this salad in the Deli section at the grocery store for $5.99 a pound. My husband loved it, and I decided to make my own. Since then every family picnic we have I am asked to bring this.

16 oz box penne pasta
1 red onion sliced thin and quartered

  • 2. Combine all other ingredients, adding cheese last. Add 1 bottle of dressing, and mix well. I put down 2 bottles in the ingredients section, because I always add more then 1 bottle. Chill. Prior to serving stir salad well, to mix dressing at the bottom of the bowl.
