A refreshing and flavorful pasta salad with a Mediterranean twist, perfect for any occasion.
Cook the rotini pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente.
Stir the pasta occasionally to prevent sticking.
Drain the pasta and rinse under cold water to cool it down.
Rinsing the pasta stops the cooking process and prevents it from becoming mushy.
In a mixing bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, red onion, and basil leaves.
Slice the cherry tomatoes and onions evenly for a consistent texture.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, salt, black pepper, and oregano to make the dressing.
Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Pour the dressing over the tomato mixture and toss to coat evenly.
Let the mixture sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Combine the cooled pasta with the tomato mixture and mix well.
Ensure the pasta is evenly coated with the dressing for maximum flavor.
Transfer the salad to a serving bowl and sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese.
Add the feta cheese just before serving to maintain its texture.
Serve the pasta salad chilled, garnished with additional basil leaves if desired.
For a more vibrant presentation, use a colorful serving bowl.
