What could I add to my pasta salad to make it better? My attempt to create my own recipe...?

It's not super original but here goes. I put fusili pasta, broccoli florets, halved cherry tomatoes, red onion, red pepper together, then added Italian dressing, olive oil and parmesan. It is ok but needs some little spice or kick. It is TOO vinegary, wish I had made my own dressing. I still have a lot left, so I really need some ideas. Thanks

Forgot to list the black olives...so it is somewhat Mediterranean, I think maybe some feta cheese but that would not tone down that strong vinegar taste. Maybe a little sugar would help?

I think it sounds good. Grated cheddar or mozzarella cheese would be good in it.

Add a bit more oil, a touch of honey, and some chili flakes.

you need some chili for spice and kick! try tobasco or woishter sauce also great!

for spice ad a few cayan flakes, or red pepper flakes. ( watch it though). To cut back the vinig. add a pinch of brown sugar and/or use a bit of ranch to tone it down.

Ladies will not have to spend big bugs at the hairdresser for a perm if you add fresh red Thai chilies. Trust me, I use them all the time, you will not taste that much vinegar.

I make my own dressings also, with my Italian blend I add a couple of cloves of garlic (Whole) and one of those Thai red Chili's whole to the mason jar, and store it in the fridge.

Okay,I also add some fennel seeds to that dressing also. For the vinegar I use a red wine or aged balsamic.

It's too vinegary because you probably added too much dressing. Maybe add more pasta to dilute the vinegar flavor out, add black olives, a touch of black pepper and baked lemon chicken will add flavor too it as well.

did you use the "diet" or "low fat" version of the Italian Dressing? Always vinegary! I do like your blend of veggies for the pasta salad. I would get raspberry viniagerette dressing and mix half and half with Mayonnaise for a sweet creamy vinegarette then add a bit of lime juice to it to make it a tiny bit tart! No, I do not use olive oil in anything!! You might add some raspberry vinegarette to the salad you already have as pasta absorbs all the dressing over night!
