Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the rotini pasta and cook for 8-10 minutes until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled rotini pasta, halved cherry tomatoes, diced bell peppers, sliced black olives, cubed mozzarella cheese, and diced red onion. Gently mix.
- Pour the Italian dressing over the salad mixture, toss to coat evenly, and add salt and pepper to taste.
- Fold in chopped fresh parsley for added flavor and visual appeal.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to meld.
- Serve chilled or at room temperature.

Notes
Can be prepared a day in advance. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days. A splash of dressing can revive dryness before serving.
