Dan's Pasta Salad With Romano And Pepperoni

Ingredients

    SALAD:
    1 pound of whole wheat pasta (smaller pastas work best, like wagon wheels, small shells, or small rigatoni).
    3 cups broccoli florets (steamed for three minutes)
    4 ounces of sharp cheddar cheese, diced to 1/4" pieces
    1 ounce of Romano (or other hard) cheese, broken up (about 1/4 inch rough chunks)
    1 medium green bell pepper, cut into 1/4" pieces
    1/2 of a medium red onion, chopped
    1 cup chopped carrots
    1/3 cup sliced black olives
    6 ounces of pepperoni

    DRESSING:
    2/3 cup olive oil
    1/4 cup lemon juice
    2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
    1-1/2 tsp Italian seasoning (or 1 tsp oregano)
    1/4 tsp coarsely-ground black pepper

Description

This Is My Regular Pasta Salad With 6 Ounces Of Pepperoni And Romano Cheese. Pepperoni Adds Mostly Fat, Salt, And A Little Protein, So Feel Free To Leave It Out. I Think It Adds Something Extra To The Flavor As Long As It's Consumed In Moderation.
