Vegetable Pasta Salad Recipe Ingredients

1 Tbsp untoasted sesame oil
1 tsp toasted sesame oil (optional)
1 clove garlic, minced
pinch of red pepper flakes
1/4 cup vinegar
1/4 cup tamari
1/4 cup water
1 tsp maple syrup
1 cup broccoli, chopped
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
sea salt
1 big tomato, diced
1/2 cup sprouts
1 green onion, chopped
noodles (I used brown rice pasta)

Optional

small amount of wakame, soaked in water, chopped
1 Tbsp cashews or other nuts, chopped


Vegetable Pasta Salad Recipe Directions

Heat a small saucepan to medium, and add the oils, garlic and red pepper flakes. Stir and don’t let the oil get too hot. Once the garlic is cooked, stir in the vinegar, tamari, water and maple syrup. Turn the heat down to medium-low, and stir occasionally while you prepare the vegetables.
The next part of this pasta salad is to sprinkle some sea salt on the broccoli and mushrooms in a bowl with a tight-fitting lid. Add some tamari if you like for flavor, put the lid on the bowl and shake for a few minutes, until the vegetables start to wilt. Let them marinate while you chop the tomato, green onion and optional cashews.
Cook the noodles, drain, and set aside to dry. Place the vegetables in a large bowl and pour the sauce over them and toss. Add the noodles and optional wakame and toss again. Garnish with roasted, chopped cashews.
