Summer Vibes Pasta Salad
easy-to-make, vegan, gluten free, and full of plant-based nutrients: vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fiber, & protein - the good stuff!
This pasta salad is a family favorite - the recipe is a twist on one from my partnerโs Grandma, who I believe got a version of it from a local deli in New York. I vividly remember the summer I first tried it... and Iโve made a veganized version of it a few times a year ever since! ๐คฉ
I used the @fabalishfoods Vegan Mayo - won in a giveaway from @vegoutlosangeles - thank you again! Itโs organic, creamy and oh-so delicious! ๐๐๐
