- Mix the Salad Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled rigatoni, crumbled feta, cranberries, onion, and parsley.

- Combine Salad and Dressing: Pour the vinaigrette over the salad mixture and toss gently.
- Adjust Seasoning: Taste the salad and add more salt, pepper, or honey if needed.
- Serve or Chill: Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Notes
Allowing the salad to chill for at least 30 minutes enhances the flavors. Store dressing separately if making in advance.
