Ingredients
Scale
- 12 oz rotini or penne pasta
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cucumber, diced
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 1/2 red onion, finely chopped
- 1 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and halved
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Boil water in a large pot. Add a pinch of salt, then cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes.
- While the pasta cooks, prepare your veggies. Chop the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, and red onion. Set them aside.
- Once the pasta is done, drain it and rinse under cold water to cool it down. This also helps stop the cooking process.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooled pasta, chopped vegetables, olives, feta cheese, and parsley.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, dried oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and mix well to combine all the flavors.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately, or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
