Buffalo Antipasto Pasta Salad
By: Jill O’Brien
A great summertime meal! Vegetables can be substituted according to what you have on hand or what you like.


Ingredients:

1 12 ounce pkg. Wild Idea Buffalo Salami, cut into pieces
1 cup, fresh mozzarella, shredded or cubed
1 each red, yellow and orange bell peppers, diced
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1 can artichoke hearts, drained & chopped
1 cup pepperoncini, sliced
½ cup olives, sliced (prefer Kalamata)
¾ cup sundried tomatoes, julienned
½ lb. pasta, cooked el dente and drained
¼ cup basil pesto
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup rice or cider vinegar
2 tsp. ground fennel
salt & pepper to taste.
* Put all ingredients in large bowl and toss! Can be refrigerated for up to a week, however you may need to add a bit more olive oil or dressing before serving.





Basil Pesto
My recipe for Basil Pesto does not include pine-nuts, as I am not a fan. They could easily be added though, for a more traditional recipe.

Ingredients:

2 cups fresh basil leaves, packed
2 cups shredded parmesan cheese
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper (*I like a little more)
1 Tb. lemon juice (*I like a little more)
1 cup olive oil
Place all ingredients in blender and puree until smooth. Refrigerate.
