Spicy Thai Pasta Salad


This is a super quick and easy pasta salad. You can purchase everything from this recipe from good ol' Trader Joe's! I brought this over to share with friends when we watched Dexter a couple weeks ago, and it was a big hit!

Ingredients

  • 1 bag of Trader Joe's Organic Brown Rice Pasta Fusilli (16 ounces)
  • 1 bottle of Trader Joe's Spicy Peanut Dressing
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, diced
  • 2 Persian cucumbers, sliced 
  • 1 cup of Trader Joe's Organic Broccoli Slaw 
  • 1 cup of Trader Joe's Shredded Green Cabbage 
  • Lime juice, to taste  
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste

Method


Boil large pot of water and add salt. While water is heating prepare vegetables to be added into the salad. Once water is boiling, add pasta, and cook according to directions (8-10 minutes) or al dente. Don't over cook the pasta, because you don't want the pasta to be soggy once the dressing is added. Once the pasta is cooked, drain the pasta, and rinse it thoroughly with cold water. Mix all the ingredients in a large bowl. Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.
