Sounds like a great luncheon main dish or a nice hearty side. Love the use of marinated artichokes along with pasta and prosciutto - makes for a very colorful salad with the addition of cherry tomatoes, black olives and green onions. Prep time does not include preparation of pasta.
Ingredients:
2 (6 ounce) jars marinated artichoke hearts (marinade reserved)
1 -2 tablespoon mayonnaise
lemon pepper
1 (8 ounce) package small shell pasta (cooked, drained and chilled)
1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes, cut into quarters
1 bunch green onion, thinly sliced
1 (6 ounce) can black olives, sliced
3 slices prosciutto, cut into strips (optional)
3/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
Directions:
1. Drain artichokes hearts, reserving marinade. Cut artichokes into quarters. Mix reserved marinade with mayonnaise and lemon pepper. Combine pasta, artichokes, tomatoes, onions, olives and prosciutto in a bowl and toss with dressing. Mix in cheese just before serving.
