Categories     Rotini Pasta Salad

Total Time 2 hours 30 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 15 minutes

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

14 ounces uncooked rotini pasta
2 cucumbers, chopped
½ onion, finely chopped
10 cherry tomatoes, quartered
¾ cup pitted black olives, sliced
1 cup Italian-style salad dressing

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the rotini, and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain and cool by running cold water over the pasta in a colander set in the sink.
  • Combine cooked and cooled pasta with the cucumbers, onion, tomatoes, and olives in a large bowl. Pour the Italian dressing over the salad and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate for at least two hours before serving.
