Instructions

Boil your pasta! Make sure that you cook the pasta in salted water – this is the best chance for the pasta to be seasoned. And cook until just al dente so your pasta salad isn’t mushy (especially keep an eye out for this with GF pastas!)
Chop up all of your veggies. While the pasta cooks, chop your bell pepper, tomatoes, red onion, kalamata olives, and spinach and crumble your feta cheese.
Drizzle the dressing on top! Add your pasta, veggies, and seasoning to a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil and balsamic vinegar and season to taste with salt and pepper.
