How to Make Antipasto Salad Stack

  1. Cook 1 pound pasta according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water to cool quickly.
  2. While pasta cooks, arrange 1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes and half of 1/2 cup sliced pepperoni around the bottom edge of a 3-quart glass serving bowl.
  3. In the bowl, layer the cooled pasta, the remaining pepperoni, 1 (15-ounce) can cannellini beans (rinsed and drained), 1/2 cup pitted Kalamata olives, and 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese. Layer these ingredients in the bowl.
  4. Drizzle generously with your favorite Italian dressing (about 1/4 cup).
  5. Top with 2 cups of loosely packed shredded lettuce.
  6. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 24 hours to allow flavors to meld.
  7. Before serving, gently toss the salad to combine all the ingredients.
