Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz rotini pasta
- 1 large English cucumber
- 1.5 cups grape tomatoes
- 0.5 cups kalamata olives
- 0.5 medium red onion
- 1 cup feta cheese
- 0.25 cups extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley
Instructions
Cook the rotini pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside to cool completely.
While the pasta is cooling, prepare the vegetables: dice the cucumber, halve the grape tomatoes, slice the kalamata olives, and thinly slice the red onion.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, dried oregano, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled rotini pasta, cucumber, grape tomatoes, kalamata olives, red onion, and crumbled feta cheese.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all ingredients evenly.
Chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over the salad for garnish.
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
