For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the vinaigrette. Kalamata olives can be substituted for black olives for a more authentic Greek flavor. If you don't have elbow macaroni, other small pasta shapes like rotini or penne work well. For a vegetarian option, omit the pepperoni and add more vegetables, such as cucumber or zucchini.
