Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add the multi-colored rotini pasta and cook for 6–8 minutes, or until al dente. Drain the pasta in a colander and rinse it gently under cold running water to cool it down completely.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled pasta with half of the Italian dressing, kosher salt, and black pepper. Toss gently to coat the pasta evenly.
- Carefully fold in the mozzarella cheese, cherry tomatoes, diced bell peppers, and sliced black olives into the pasta mixture, ensuring even distribution.
- Transfer the pasta salad into large foil pans. Cover tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
