?There is no one definitive recipe for antipasto salad, as it is a dish that can be adapted to suit personal preferences. However, common ingredients in an antipasto salad may include various cured meats, cheeses, olives, peppers, and tomatoes.

 1 lb. cooked and cooled pasta (I use tri color twist trio for color)
 1 lb. sliced pepperoni
 2 1/2" thick slices (from deli) hard salami, cubed
 2 1/2" thick slices (from deli) provolone cheese, cubed
 1 jar green olives
 1 can pitted small black olives
 1 small onion, chopped
 1 large tomato, chopped
 ½ cup balsamic or red wine vinegar
  cup olive oil
 1 tbsp. basil
 1 tbsp. oregano
 1 tsp. salt
 1 tsp. pepper

Combine all ingredients in large tupperware container. (I use tupperware as you need a tight cover) Pour dressing over mixture and seal container. Marinate for several hours or overnight. I usually sprinkle a little more vinegar on before serving to wet it again as the pasta and tomatoes absorb quite a bit.
