Cook pasta as you normally would. While the pasta cooks, slice the veggies.
Once pasta is done, drain it and place it in a large bowl. Then, add the cucumber, tomatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, onion, feta cheese, and stir to combine.
Next, make the dressing: whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, sun-dried tomato oil, parsley, salt, and pepper together. Drizzle the dressing over the pasta and use tongs to toss everything together. Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Enjoy!

*Sun-dried tomatoes: I prefer using the ones that come in oil; that way, you can add some of the oil to the salad dressing, which provides more flavor. If you can only find dried sun-dried tomatoes (in a package, not in a jar with oil), that's fine! They will still work.
