Old Fashioned Pasta Salad

Ingredients

1 box salad rotini (16 oz)
1 can black olives (6 oz)
1/2 small green pepper (optional)
1 pack pepperoni (with this you can add as much or as little as you would like)
1 small yellow or white onion (optional)
1 (8 oz) mozzarella cheese
1 (8 oz) bottle of Italian salad dressing.(This may also be substituted with Lite Italian dressing and may be used as sparingly as you'd like)

Directions

Boil salad rotini as directed on box. Drain noodles and run cold water over noodles to cool them down. Place noodles in a large mixing bowl. Dice onion and green peppers. Mix peppers, onion, pepperoni, and olives in with noodles. I usually allow to chill at least an hour, the noodles are still usually pretty warm. After salad has chilled, add cheese and dressing.
