Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add pasta and cook until al dente, usually 8 to 10 minutes, then drain.
- Rinse the pasta under cold running water to halt the cooking process and cool it down. Drain thoroughly.
- Prepare vegetables by dicing cucumbers, chopping the red bell pepper, and slicing the red onion. Pit and halve kalamata olives, and chop dill and parsley.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
- In a large serving bowl, combine cooled pasta, cucumbers, red bell pepper, red onion, olives, feta cheese, and chopped herbs. Toss gently to mix.
- Drizzle the dressing over the salad mixture and toss gently to ensure all ingredients are coated.
- Cover the salad and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
- Before serving, gently toss again and serve chilled.

Notes
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Avoid freezing once dressed, as cucumbers can become watery. Leftovers can be enjoyed cold straight from the bowl.
