Begin by cooking the spaghetti according to the package instructions in a large pot of boiling salted water. For a perfect texture, aim to remove the pasta from the heat one minute before it's fully cooked for an al dente bite. Drain the pasta in a colander, then rinse it under cold water to stop the cooking process and prevent sticking, tossing it gently with a drizzle of olive oil.

In a spacious mixing bowl, add the cooled spaghetti as the base for your Summer Italian Spaghetti Salad. Dice the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, salami, green bell pepper, red onion, and black olives. Toss these colorful ingredients together with the pasta, ensuring an even distribution of flavors and textures.

Select your favorite Italian dressing for a burst of flavor in the salad. Drizzle the dressing over the spaghetti and vegetable mixture, then gently toss everything together to ensure each morsel is coated.

To elevate the flavors, sprinkle in grated Parmesan cheese, paprika, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly again. Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least two hours.
