Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add 8 ounces of rotini pasta and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water.
- Slice 1 cup of Persian cucumbers and halve 1 cup of cherry tomatoes. Thinly slice half a red onion. Place the veggies in a large mixing bowl.
- In a small bowl, whisk together ⅓ cup of extra virgin olive oil, 3 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, and salt and pepper to taste until emulsified.
- In the bowl with the vegetables, add the cooled rotini pasta and pour the vinaigrette over. Toss gently until well mixed.
- Crumble ½ cup of feta cheese over the salad and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley. Fold in gently until incorporated.
- Let the salad rest for 10-15 minutes to allow flavors to meld. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
