• In a 3qt saucepan Cook macaroni noodles for 5-6 minutes so they are a little al dente (if the pasta is still undercooked, continue to cook but check the noodles by taking one, letting cool and then bite into it to check the texture. you are looking for a white dot in the middle to show the pasta is nearly cooked through. This is perfect)
  12 oz Spiral Macaroni Noodles
• While noodles are cooking wash and gut peppers
  1 small Red Bell Pepper, 1 small Green Bell Pepper, 1 small Yellow Bell Pepper
• Drain noodles completely, and rinse with cold water
  12 oz Spiral Macaroni Noodles
• Once noodles are drained completely, dump in large mixing bowl and put in refrigerator
  12 oz Spiral Macaroni Noodles
• Chop or slice bell peppers. (I like to slice them as it adds some colorful dimension to the salad, as to where the chopped tend to get blended in with the salad and you don't see them as much)
  1 small Red Bell Pepper, 1 small Green Bell Pepper, 1 small Yellow Bell Pepper
• Chop onion
  1 small White Onion
• Get out noodles and add all ingredients except pepperoni, Italian dressing and parmesan cheese (when adding your cherry tomatoes, you can choose to add them whole or cut in half.)
  6.5 oz Black Olives, Cherry Tomatoes, 1 small Red Bell Pepper, 1 small Green Bell Pepper, 1 small Yellow Bell Pepper, 1 small White Onion
• Add a ¼ of the Italian dressing and seasoning, mix everything together
  15 oz Italian Dressing, ½ tsp ground black pepper, ¼ tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp Italian seasoning, ½ tsp Parsley
• Add a ¼ of the Italian dressing and mix everything together

Ready to serve? Don't forget these steps...

• Stir salad with a folding motion so to make sure to get anything that may have settled to the bottom
• Add remaining dressing (remember if you are not serving this for guests at a gathering then you want to make sure you are only using ½ a bottle of dressing)
  15 oz Italian Dressing
• Add pepperoni and cheese, give one last stir then put back in refrigerator until ready to serve
