Cook the tri-color rotini pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water to cool completely. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine the chopped broccoli florets, chopped English cucumber, halved grape tomatoes, chopped fresh parsley, and diced red onion. This ensures all vegetables are evenly prepared before mixing.

In a very large mixing bowl, add the cooled cooked rotini pasta.

Add the prepared chopped vegetables (broccoli, cucumber, grape tomatoes, parsley, red onion) to the large mixing bowl with the pasta.

Add the shredded carrots, drained Kalamata olives, drained and chopped pepperoncini, diced pepperoni, and cubed mild cheddar cheese to the bowl.

Sprinkle both packets of Zesty Italian seasoning mix over all the ingredients in the large mixing bowl.

Using a large wooden spoon or sturdy spatula, mix all the ingredients thoroughly until well combined and the seasoning is evenly distributed.

Pour both 24 fluid ounce bottles of Olive Garden Signature Italian dressing over the pasta salad.

Mix the salad thoroughly again to ensure the dressing is evenly distributed and coats all the ingredients.

Crumble the feta cheese over the top of the salad and gently mix it in to add a creamy texture and tangy flavor. Serve immediately or chill for at least 30 minutes for flavors to meld.
