Whole Wheat Rotini Pasta Salad

Step 1
Bring a large pot with lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook rotini at a boil until the pasta is cooked yet slightly firm to the bite, about 8 minutes; drain.

Step 2
Rinse the pasta with cold water until completely chilled; drain completely.

Step 3
While the pasta cooks, whisk the apple cider vinegar and olive oil together in a large bowl until blended. Stir feta cheese, basil, salt, and black pepper into the vinaigrette.

Step 4
Fold the asparagus, tomatoes, carrots, green onions, and garlic into the vinaigrette to coat evenly.

Step 5
Stir the cooled pasta into the vegetable mixture; toss until evenly mixed.
