\nI know, I know…it’s late September, but pasta salad is a hit in my kitchen all year round. It’s time to celebrate, because I became a second time aunt yesterday! My brave sister gave birth to a baby boy. Hurray! He might be a tad young for this salad, but it’s a little virtual birthday party for him. This delicious pasta salad recipe is actually a remake of one of my old recipes on this page. It needed some tweaking and a new photo. This recipe is also in my cookbook “Vegan Dinner Party”<\/a>. <\/b>I don’t usually share recipes from my books online, but I wanted to make an exception for this. And here’s more great news – I’m writing a brand new and ultimately delicious eBook with exclusive recipes<\/b>! It will be sold here on VeganSandra.com, so definitely stay tuned if you’re in need of new fabulous recipes.<\/div>\n

\nI’ve made this salad countless of times. It comes together in 15 minutes and tastes amazing. Sun-dried tomatoes have this strong and satisfying umami flavor. If you blend them with garlic, basil and a tiny bit of curry (an everlasting secret ingredient of mine), it will make a flavorful pesto. Mix it with boiled pasta, feisty red onion and luscious olives and you have a wonderful festive main dish. It’s so easy to make that it suits perfectly for a weeknight meal, too!\u00a0<\/p>\n

\nTime:<\/b> 15 minutes<\/p>\n

\nServes:<\/b> 4 – 6 people<\/p>\n

\nSalad:\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

    \n
  • 3 \u00bd cups \/ 250 g uncooked pasta (farfalle for example, gluten-free, if needed)<\/li>\n
  • 14 oz \/ 360 g pitted Kalamata olives or black olives<\/li>\n
  • \u00bd red onion\u00a0<\/li>\n
  • 10 cherry tomatoes\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \nPesto:\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

      \n
    • 1 cup \/ 200 g sun-dried tomatoes in oil (use all of the oil too)\u00a0<\/li>\n
    • 4 handfuls fresh basil\u00a0<\/li>\n
    • 4 cloves of garlic\u00a0<\/li>\n
    • pinch of ground black pepper\u00a0<\/li>\n
    • \u00bd tsp curry powder\u00a0<\/li>\n
    • (salt to taste, if you are using unsalted sun-dried tomatoes)\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      \nBoil the pasta until al dente<\/i>. Drain it, rinse with cold water and mix it with olives, thinly sliced red onion and chopped cherry tomatoes. Make the pesto: blend sun-dried tomatoes and their oil with basil, garlic, black pepper and curry powder. Mix the pesto with pasta. Taste and add salt, if needed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
