Moroccan Style Pasta Salad

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I halved the recipe since I was making for just myself and didn't want a ton leftover. Used mini farfalle instead of rotini (what I had on hand). Used the full amts of salami (cubed) and edam, half a bell pepper, full amt of corn, about 2 Tbsp olives, and also added half a can of artichoke hearts (chopped) and a few Tbsp homemade pickled green tomatoes (diced). Used shallot in the dressing and white wine vinegar. Really delicious. Love the za'atar in the dressing. Thanks for sharing!
