Creamy Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta Salad

Cook the fusilli pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain well and rinse with cold water to stop cooking and cool the pasta. Set aside.

While the pasta cooks, prepare the dressing. In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, chopped fresh basil, salt, and black pepper.

Whisk the dressing ingredients together until well combined and smooth.

Add the cooled, drained pasta to the bowl with the dressing.

Toss gently to ensure all the pasta is evenly coated with the creamy sun-dried tomato dressing.

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper to your preference.

Serve immediately or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
