Cook the pasta

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the rotini pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain the pasta and rinse it under cold water to stop the cooking process.

In a small bowl, whisk together the Italian dressing, grated Parmesan cheese, chopped basil, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
