Vegan Sundried Tomato Pasta Salad
Not even kidding....the only bad thing about this is that there's more in the fridge and it winks at me every time I walk by! This pasta salad is light and bright with a little red pepper flake to kick you in the pants! SO good and so easy, the hardest part was chopping the herbs! ;)
