Instructions 1. Cook and drain the pasta. Rinse well with cold water. Once cooled and fully drained, combine the pasta, veggies and green onion. 2. Carefully whisk the dressing ingredients together and pour over the pasta and veggies, toss well to coat. 3. Chill for up to 24 hours before serving. Remove from fridge at least an hour before serving, and if needed, add hot water in small increments to "loosen" the peanut sauce.
Description This salad can be make ahead and is always a winner with the peanut dressing.
Notes I cheated and use the frozen crushed garlic and ginger, and it was perfect. I had some frozen string beans that I added without cooking, and it was a good addition.
Source I cannot find the source for this other than there is a note on it by Linda.
