Preparation Steps
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the rotini pasta and cook for 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain the pasta and rinse under cold water to cool it down.
- While the pasta cooks, dice the cucumber into bite-sized pieces, halve the cherry tomatoes, and finely chop the red onion.
- In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled pasta, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and crumbled feta. Add the parsley and basil, and gently mix.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss until well-coated, being careful not to overmix.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes
Enhance flavors by chilling longer; add grilled chicken or chickpeas for a more filling dish.
