Veggie with Whole Wheat Pasta

Sorry again for the bad photo…of a half-eaten salad.  Sometimes we’re hungry and forget to take the picture before we dig in.  Nothing too special about this salad.  Whole wheat pasta is growing on me though.

Ingredients

makes 5 servings

  • 1 package whole wheat pasta, spirals
  • 2 red peppers, thinly sliced
  • 3 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup baby carrots, thinly sliced
  • 10 oz green beans, chopped into 1″ pieces and blanched

Dressing:

  • zest from 1 lemon
  • juice from half a lemon
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dill weed (dried or fresh)
  • salt & pepper

Boil water and cook pasta according to package.  1 minute before pasta is done, add the green beans to the boiling water.  Drain and rinse with cold water.  Whisk together dressing ingredients.  Toss dressing with pasta/beans and other sliced vegetables.
