Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by bringing a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the whole wheat rotini pasta and cook according to package directions, about 8-10 minutes, until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled pasta with cucumber, celery, red bell pepper (or cherry tomatoes), and cooked peas. Fold in the drained canned tuna, breaking it into bite-sized pieces.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt, light mayonnaise, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard until smooth. Add dill, garlic powder, salt, and pepper; mix until combined.
- Pour the dressing over the salad mixture and fold gently to coat evenly. Make sure not to break down the vegetables and pasta.
- Cover and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes to meld the flavors. Stir before serving and adjust seasoning as needed.
