Instructions

1. Create a boil in a large saucepan of water that has been seasoned. You should add the pasta and cook it until it reaches the al dente stage, as directed on the package.
2. Once it is finished, drain the pasta. After rinsing with cold water, drain in a thorough manner, and then toss with olive oil. Put aside for later.
3. Mix all of the dressing ingredients together in a bowl using a whisk until they are completely smooth and homogenous.
4. After the pasta has been cooked, place it in a big bowl together with the bacon, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, cheese, green onions, and olives (if you are using them).
5. Mix everything together after adding the dressing. You should taste the seasoning, and if necessary, add more salt or pepper to your liking.
6. When ready to serve, cover and place in the refrigerator for at least an hour.
