Greek Pasta Salad

Submitted by Jessica Hoylman

"I received this recipe from a friend who said she got it from a health and nutrition class in college. Easy salad to make and is great for potlucks or BBQ's. TIP - You can save a little of the liquid from the can of artichoke hearts to add to the salad for extra flavor."

Wonderful!! Huge hit with the family! I halved the recipe and used Salami instead of pepperoni. Rather then grilled bell pepper I used just green fresh bell pepper. I also used my own homemade vinaigrette dressing (red wine vinegar, olive oil, basil, garlic, oregano, salt, & pepper). I loved the combination of flavors with the different veggies, and the feta cheese! This was great and we will be making this one again for sure! Thanks so much for posting! Made for Spring PAC 2009
