{This Giveaway is closed. Thank you for participating! Winner announced below!}

A few weeks ago I was contacted by Hodgson Mill to participate in their Summer Pastablities Challenge.  Now if any of you know me I love a good challenge especially when it gives me the opportunity to share my love for food and my recipes, plus if their is a chance I can win something even better. :-)  But staying on track, Hodgson Mill mailed me a variety pack of their delicious whole wheat pastas from Angel Hair, Bowties, to Medium Shells.  I was so excited to see that my package had come in I knew I needed to put my thinking cap on and see what yummy goodness I was going to concoct for it.

I decided that its summertime and pasta salads should be light and summery, perfect for any outdoor shindig.  Of course you know I always like to kick it up a notch with a little heat, so that when I decided on doing my take on a Spicy Asian Pasta Salad.  Now with this dish you can either keep it vegetarian or for those who want a little meat you can add shredded chicken.  The possibilities are truly endless.

Spicy Whole Wheat Asian Pasta Salad

Ingredients:

1~10oz. box Hodgson Mill Whole Wheat Pasta Bow Tie

1 cup purple cabbage, very finely sliced

1 cup bean sprouts

2 scallions, thinly sliced

1 cup grated carrot

2 mandarin oranges, peeled and sliced

1/2 pound de-veined shrimp (optional)

1 1/2 cups shredded chicken (optional)

 

Dressing Ingredients

1/3 cup peanut oil

2 teaspoon sesame oil

2 tablespoons lime juice

3 tablespoons light soy sauce

3 tablespoons honey

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

2 garlic cloves, minced

1-2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

salt and black pepper, to taste

 

Directions:

Cook the bow ties according to the package directions, drain, and rinse with cold water.

In a blender combine all the dressing ingredients and blend until smooth.  If you want more heat add more red pepper flakes.

In a large bowl combine all salad ingredients.  Add dressing and mix until all is combined.  Taste for salt and adjust accordingly.

Serve and Enjoy!
