This recipe is absolutely delicious, a great take-along, and always devoured! I fix it just for myself,however,and keep the crunchies in a separate container, adding a handful with each serving of the salad over a 3 day period. Especially enjoyed in warmer weather.

I have been eating 'dreamfields pasta' for some time and was curios on your take on this seldom talked about substitute for whole wheat pasta...It is very low in carbs and i cant tell the difference between it and regular pasta.....That is important to me because i have tried wwheat pasta and it is just not right.
