Ingredients
Method
Cooking the Pasta
- Start by boiling a pot of salted water. Add the gluten-free pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually around 8-10 minutes.
Preparing Vegetables
- While the pasta is cooking, chop your cherry tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, and red onion. Slice the olives, and crumble the feta cheese if needed.
Combining Ingredients
- Once cooked, drain the pasta and rinse it under cold water to stop the cooking process. In a large bowl, combine the cooled pasta, chopped vegetables, olives, feta cheese, and fresh basil.
Dressing the Salad
- Pour the Italian dressing over the salad mixture and toss gently until everything is well coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Chilling
- For the best flavor, let your salad sit in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
Substitutions include artichokes or zucchini for veggies and mozzarella for cheese. Ensure to rinse pasta after cooking to prevent sticking.
