This easy Rotini Pasta Salad is a classic for picnics, potlucks, or an evening grilling out with family. This salad mixes the BEST Italian dressing with rotini pasta, lots of veggies and cheese for the perfect hearty side dish. With only a handful of ingredients, and a few steps, this pasta salad can be ready and on the table in no time!

I have found that the best way & easiest way to make pasta salads are with store-bought bottled salad dressing. It sounds crazy and I know some may totally disagree because it's not "homemade" but I am telling you that it really does make pasta salad so easy to make and so flavorful.
