Ingredients

  • ¾ cup seashell pasta

  • 2 hot dogs, sliced 3/4-inch thick

  • ¾ cup green manzanilla olives stuffed with pimento, halved

  • 4 ounces mild Cheddar cheese, cubed

  1. Bring a pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook shell pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, 8 minutes. Drain and run under cold water to chill.

  2. Place pasta in a salad bowl and combine with hot dogs, olives, Cheddar cheese, and creamy salad dressing. Stir in more salad dressing if mixture seems dry. Keep salad refrigerated.
