Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside to cool.

While the pasta cooks, prepare fresh ingredients: dice the deli ham, pepperoni, salami, and cut the provolone into ½-inch squares. Dice the red onion, chop the bell pepper, quarter the cucumber, and halve the cherry tomatoes. Crumble the fresh basil.

Once the pasta has cooled a few minutes, rinse it under cold water until completely chilled to stop the cooking process.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled pasta with the prepared vegetables, diced meats, and cheeses. Pour in the Italian dressing and toss gently.

Cover with plastic wrap or a lid and chill for 2-3 hours to allow flavors to meld together.

Before serving, gently stir to redistribute the dressing and let sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
