Combine garlic, oregano, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and Dijon mustard in a small jar. Slowly whisk in the extra virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. If using a mason jar, you can simply put the lid on and shake the jar until well combined.
Drizzle the dressing over the top and toss well. Chill for 2-3 hours before serving and enjoy!
NOTES
This salad is lightly dressed. If you like extra dressing on your pasta salad, feel free to 1.5x the dressing.
