Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz tri-color rotini pasta
  • 1 cup Italian dressing
  • 1/2 cup black olives sliced
  • 6 oz artichoke hearts drained & chopped
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese crumbled
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese grated
  • 1 tsp coarse sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and add the rotini pasta.
    12 oz tri-color rotini pasta
  • Cook the pasta according to the package instructions, or until it's al dente (cooked but still firm to the bite). Once the pasta is cooked, drain it in a colander and rinse it under cold water to stop the cooking process and cool the pasta
  • Once the rotini is cooked, drained and cooled, transfer cooked pasta to a large bowl. Add olives, artichoke hearts, feta cheese, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper and toss lightly. 
    1/2 cup black olives, 6 oz artichoke hearts, 1/2 cup feta cheese, 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, 1 tsp coarse sea salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Add in Italian dressing and stir to coat. Taste at this point - it will be fairly "wet" - but the pasta will absorb all of that! 
    1 cup Italian dressing
  • Refrigerate until ready to serve - recommend refrigeration for at least a couple of hours for the flavors to meld together and the pasta to absorb a little of the dressing.
