Mouthwatering Monday – Vegan Pasta

Uncategorized

  Photobucket

Having just completed a week of preparing only vegan recipes, I wanted to share my favorites with you.  This week I created a pasta dish – that in my opinion – kicks butt.  This recipe is easy to make and is easily made in less than 20 minutes.

INGREDIENTS                

  • 1 cup craisins
  • 1 cup pecans or walnuts
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, diced
  • 8 ounces whole wheat pasta
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

    • DIRECTIONS                   

    Cook pasta according to directions on packaging.
    Saute onions, walnuts, craisins and garlic in 1 tbsp of olive oil.
    Strain pasta and mix with onions, walnuts, craisins, garlic and remaining tbsp of olive oil in a large bowl.
    Serve

        I always need another way to make pasta and I love nuts & fruits on salad, so sounds good, too!

        I only recently discovered whole grain pasta. I struggle to come up with recipes that don’t involve spag. sauce so this is great!

        I am not sure my hubs would go “meatless” but this would be great for me at lunch! Thanks for sharing. Recipes always taste better when they’ve been tested by friends!
