- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
For the pasta salad:

In a large bowl, combine all of the pasta salad ingredients, except the hard boiled eggs. (If you'd like, save some of each of the toppings to place on top of the finished salad in rows, like a traditional Cobb salad.) Drizzle the dressing over top and mix well. Place the saved toppings and hard boiled eggs on top and serve,
