Cook your pasta in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and toss with a little vegetable oil to keep it from sticking. Cover and set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, heat 2 tbsp olive oil. When the oil is hot, add in the tomatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes start to burst out of their skins and are fragrant (about 6-7 minutes), then remove from heat and allow to cool down before moving onto the next step.
Meanwhile, make the Homemade Italian Dressing. Add all the ingredients to a bowl and mix together until fully combined and smooth. Taste and adjust seasonings if desired. You can also use a blender for this step.
In a large bowl, toss all the ingredients together: pasta, roasted tomatoes, mozzarella, sliced red onions, pepperoncini (optional). Add in some of the dressing and reserve the remaining dressing for serving (or leftovers). Cover with plastic wrap and pop in the refrigerator. Chill for a few hours or up to 2 days. Pasta salads usually taste better the day after you make them :)

To make the dressing, put the ingredients in a small bowl or cup and use an immersion blender to blend into a creamy consistency. A wide mouth canning jar works perfectly for this. Taste and adjust if needed. Note: an immersion blender works best when you blend in a jar just a bit larger than the head of the blender.

Allow dressing to sit while you chop and toss together your salad, then shake again before serving.
