16 ounces rotini pasta or another small shape like farfalle or elbows

2 seedless cucumbers peeled and diced
1 pint grape or cherry tomatoes halved

list end
Instructions
list of 3 items
1. Cook pasta according to package instructions. Rinse with cold water, drain, and cool.
2. While the pasta cooks, chop your veggies for the salad.
3. Place pasta in a large bowl. Stir in onion, olives, cucumbers, tomatoes, and artichoke hearts. Add tzatziki sauce and toss to coat. Fold in feta cheese,
cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Recipe Notes
*You can find prepared tzatziki sauce (which I love as a shortcut instead of making my own) in most regular grocery stores. Look in the refrigerated part
of the produce section where you also get hummus and salad dressings!
