Help! You forgot that you're supposed to bring a noodle salad to a barbecue with friends? Then this vegan salad is your savior in distress. It's made within 10 minutes and tastes super delicious. It's almost like you guys worked really hard on it. All you have to do is throw a few ingredients into a bowl and you'll have a great vegan noodle salad in no time. And promise, this salad is really foolproof!
The cat in the salad is optional, by the way. Kidding! She just loved the salad as much as I did. That's why I didn't want to keep it from you guys.
The most delicious part of this pasta salad is the roasted pine nuts. And believe me, the roasting step is really important. Only then the pine nuts become really aromatic and give the salad that extra kick.
Instead of wholemeal pasta, you can of course also use normal wheat pasta for this recipe. The salad tastes at least as good with this. I just like to use wholemeal noodles because they are made from the whole wheat or spelt grain and therefore contain more nutrients. They also keep you full longer. By the way, the tofu provides you with an extra portion of protein.
You can also make your own Pesto Rosso. Simply mix cashews, yeast flakes, dried tomatoes in oil, herbs and spices until you like the consistency and taste.
I would be very happy if you leave me a comment or a review or visit me on Instagram or Pinterest. There you will always be kept up to date.
Have fun with the recooking!
