I made this one yesterday. I think next time I will cut the recipe in half, as using a whole box of rotini (1lb) was a bit much and a little more than the recipe called for. I didn't adjust the dressing ingredients, so it's a little dry.
pasta salad
6 cups cooked regular or multigrain rotini pasta
1 1/2 cups diced cucumber
1 cup diced tomatoes (about 2 medium)
1 cup diced green bell pepper (about 1 medium)
1-4oz package crumbled feta cheese
12 medium pitted black olives, sliced
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
dressing
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/8 tsp black pepper
1. For pasta salad, combine pasta, cucumber, tomatoes bell pepper, feta cheese, olives and dill in large bowl.
2. For dressing, whisk oil, lemon juice, salt, oregano and black pepper in small bowl. Pour over salad mixture; toss well. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
I used about 1 1/2 Tbsp dried dill, and a small can of sliced olives instead of the fresh dill and olives.
