Spaghetti Salad

We're suckers for a good pasta salad (no, but seriously, it's the perfect picnic food), but have never thought to use spaghetti. Loaded with antipasto everything — salami, olives, peppers, and onion — this will be devoured at any summer outing. Once you have tried it, you will do it over and over again.

Ingredients :

• 2 tbsp. Fresh basil, sliced
• 1/2 Red onion, thinly sliced
• 1/2 cup Black olives, sliced
• 1 cup Cucumber, diced
• 1 cup Green bell pepper, diced
• 1 cup Red bell pepper, diced
• 1 1/4 cups Salami, cubed
• 8 oz. Mozzarella, cubed
• 1 packet Grape tomatoes, halved
• 1 pound Spaghetti, cooked
• Freshly ground black pepper
• Kosher salt
• 1/2 tsp. Red pepper flakes
• 1 tsp. Paprika
• 1 tsp. Italian seasoning
• 1 clove Garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup Grated parmesan
• 1/4 cup Red wine vinegar
• 1 tbsp. Extra virgin olive oil
