This version is like a pasta salad – which can be served warm or cold. Experiment with additional ingredients, like asparagus, spinach, or hard boiled eggs. Or add chicken or shrimp to make a one-bowl meal.
Ingredients
- 8 oz. dry pasta (we use bow ties – “Farfalle” – but almost any shape works)
- Salt
- 2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 10 oz jar Serious Foodie Romesco Sauce
- 1 Sweet yellow bell pepper – cut into strips
- 1 Sweet red bell pepper – cut into strips
- 1 scallion, sliced
- 1 tablespoon diced fresh chives
Instructions
- Bring 4 quarts of water to a boil. Add salt to taste, then add pasta to boiling water. Cook to al dente according to instructions on pasta box. Drain (DO NOT RINSE PASTA!). Immediately toss the pasta with olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Add the cut up vegetables and chives, the jar of Romesco sauce, and mix together. Serve warm (or cold). Add some shredded Manchego cheese if you like.
