How to Make Eileen's Pasta Salad
- Cook rotini pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process and cool the pasta.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, drained artichoke hearts, black olives, and your choice of chopped vegetables (grape tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, etc.).
- Add the creamy Italian or Caesar dressing. Start with 1 cup and add more to taste, ensuring all the pasta and vegetables are well coated.
- Gently toss to combine all ingredients.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This step is crucial for the best taste!
- Before serving, toast slices of French bread and spread with butter. Serve the pasta salad alongside the toasted bread.
