Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large pot, bring salted water to a rolling boil. Add the rotini pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, usually about 8-10 minutes. Drain and let it rest before rinsing.
- Rinse the drained pasta under cold water for about 1-2 minutes to stop the cooking process and cool it down.
- Chop the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, bell pepper, red onion, and fresh parsley into bite-sized pieces.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, freshly squeezed lemon juice, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled rotini pasta and the chopped vegetables. Pour the dressing over the top and toss gently.
- Cover the mixing bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour before serving.
- Once chilled, stir the salad and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve in a large bowl.
