Cook 1 lb of spaghetti pasta according to package. I cook 2 minutes under for al dente.

Drain and let cool before adding to a large bowl.

I love the flavor and texture of sundried tomatoes. I used a 3oz bag and thinly sliced them before adding to the salad.

Artichoke hearts are one of my favorite antipasto ingredients,

I roughly chopped 1 cup of marinated artichoke hearts and added them to the bowl.

This is the perfect summer salad using only pantry ready ingredients!
