Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by boiling a large pot of salted water. Add your gluten-free rotini pasta, cooking it for 7–10 minutes or until al dente. Once done, drain the pasta in a colander and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process; set aside to cool completely.
- While the pasta cools, slice your cucumber and red onion. Dice the yellow bell pepper and halve or quarter the grape tomatoes.
- Shred the Parmesan cheese using a grater. Cut cubed mozzarella cheese into bite-sized pieces.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled pasta with all your freshly prepared vegetables and the cheeses. If opting for meat, include chopped pepperoni at this stage.
- Sprinkle McCormick Salad Supreme Seasoning generously over the mixture, followed by a drizzle of Olive Garden Italian dressing, then mix thoroughly.
- Stir the salad gently but thoroughly, ensuring all ingredients are well combined and evenly coated.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer to an airtight container, refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes
For best results, allow salad to chill to enhance flavors and textures. Fresh vegetables and proper cooking methods are key to a perfect dish.
