Pasta is one of my favorite dishes. I love it all kind of ways. Pasta is very versatile and easy to prepare.

About 7 years ago I had Spaghetti Salad for the first time as a salad. From that day on I was hooked. I started making it for many of the events I cooked was asked to cook for and for special occasions. Now that I am vegan, I prepare it more often.

Enjoy this week’s free recipe.
