I made this for a party (55 adults and 30 kids). I doubled it and only 1/2 was eaten. (We also served sloppy joes, hot dogs, a bean salad, fruit, veggies and 2 dips.) The salad was really good. I changed a few things as suggested in other reviews: I used Rotini pasta, pepperoni instead of salami, white balsamic vinegar and I added fresh basil. It could have used a little more flavor maybe but it was still really tasty. I think next time I will put in a little less cheese and make it the day before the party because it tasted even better the second day.

I liked this alot. I made it just like the recipe calls for. I can't stand on here when people change the ingredients and then give it a lower rating. I will make this again and again. Thanks Kathy

Makes a large portion at 6 servings. Took it to a Wine Club tasting and had many requests for the recipe. I just referred them to allrecipes.com. This recipe is a keeper.

It was just ok to me, I didnt like the dark color of the pasta, it had an ok flavor, but it reminded me of an item you pick on a buffet in Vegas and wish you didnt. Sorry!!! I feel bad about that but just didnt care for it.

Make it a 5-star with the following alterations: Add marinated artichoke hearts, reserving 1/2 c. marinade for dressing. Dressing: add 1/2 c. reserved artichoke marinade, 1/4 c. vinegar, 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar, juice from 1/2 a lemon, fresh herbs (mint, basil, parsley - whatever you have on hand), some red chili sauce, salt and pepper to taste. I used a smoked swiss/mozz mix for the cheese, added tomatoes, banana peppers and green pepper. Very pretty salad and a definite crowd-pleaser. WARNING: this makes WAY more than 6 servings. We had a party of 15-20 and had plenty!

I had many compliments on this dish. Instead of salami I used dried Italian sausage (homemade even!). I also used cherry tomatoes halved and marinated fresh mozzarella.

This was yummy! And it's nice that you don't have to let it sit for hours to let the flavors blend before eating. I shredded a carrot, added artichokes and used berenstein's balsamic dressing. A sprinkle of pepper flakes added a nice kick.

No one in my family cared for this. It made a lot. Besides the taste, it had an unappetizing brownish color due to the balsamic vinegar.

I added marinated artichoke hearts and used bow-tie pasta. Also used a packet of "Good Seasons MILD Italian" and used red wine vinegar in the Good Seasons. I found smoked mozzarella and used it - this is a great recipe that you can add other ingredients to. Will make it again!!

This was good with some alterations. I added more salami and fresh basil from the garden. I think the basil gives it flavor and freshness that the salad otherwise lacks. You have to love balsamic to really enjoy this recipe.

I love this recipe- it is so easy to add whatever I have on hand, and tastes so good! I have been omitting the onion and tomatoes lately and adding green peppers, and using feta cheese instead of mozzarella. It gets rave reviews at parties, and people don't realize how easy it is to make!
