Preparation Steps
- Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add gluten-free pasta, cooking according to the package directions, but reduce the time by 1-2 minutes to achieve that perfect al dente texture.
- Once done, drain the pasta and rinse it under cold water to stop the cooking process.
- While the pasta cools, wash and chop the bell peppers into bite-sized pieces and slice the cucumbers into thin rounds. Halve the cherry tomatoes and set aside in a large mixing bowl.
- In a small jar, combine olive oil with Italian vinaigrette, secure the lid, and shake vigorously for about 20 seconds.
- In the large bowl with the vegetables, add the cooled gluten-free pasta. Pour in about ¾ of the prepared vinaigrette and gently toss everything together.
- Once mixed, taste the pasta salad and season with salt and pepper according to your preference.
- Cover the combined salad and refrigerate for at least one hour.
- Just before serving, give the gluten-free pasta salad another gentle toss, add more vinaigrette if needed, and stir in fresh herbs.
