1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
1 cup cheddar cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup minced green onion
mini pepperoni slices so it looks good. about 1/2 cup

cook pasta and drain (if you like cold pasta salads add small amount of dressing to keep from sticking cool pasta before adding anything else to it)(if you like hot pasta salad add cheese directly to hot pasta before adding dressing)

while pasta is cooking
mix dressing (an Italian dressing crucible works great for this)

prepare other ingredients as need. sprinkle with dressing to keep from drying out
