Grilled Veggie Pasta Salad

Whole-wheat pasta used to be hard to stomach. Sure, it was good for you—loaded with vitamins and minerals and containing two to three times as much fiber as refined-wheat pasta—but the texture ranged from brittle to gummy while flavor traveled from bland to sour. The good news is that in recent years the quality of whole-wheat pasta has improved considerably without sacrificing nutritional benefits.

So, do yourself a favor and try this simple, healthy and very tasty veggie pasta salad dressed with a roasted garlic vinaigrette. This is one dish where the flavor develops with time, so make an extra large batch and keep it in the fridge!  For  a list of ingredients and the full recipe please click here.
