Direcciones
- Cook pasta in boiling water and salt in large uncovered pot or possibly Dutch oven for 8 to 10 min, stirring occasionally, till tender but hard. Drain. Rinse under cool water. Drain well. Turn into large bowl.
- Drizzle extra virgin olive oil over pasta. Toss to coast.
- Add in next 6 ingredients. Mix well.
- Dressing: Whisk all ingredients in small bowl.
- Makes about 1 c. dressing. Drizzle over pasta. Toss gently to coat. Makes 12 c..
- NOTES : I used 8 ounce whole wheat pasta, cooked without oil. I used frzn broccoli, blanched at the end of cooking the pasta. Instead of bacon I used 5 slices of canadian bacon. I cooked it then chopped it. Instead of an entire red onion I used about half of one, diced. I omitted the mushrooms. I reduced the sunflower seeds to 1/3 c.. Instead of fresh squeezed oj I used some orange-tangerine juice. If using fresh oj I'd zest the orange and include it in the dressing. I only used a healthy pinch of white pepper because mine seems unusually strong. I'd say this would serve 8 as a side dish. I used lowfat mayo (1 gram of fat per serving). If making ahead don't dress till ready to serve. Pasta absorbs dressing.
