Recipe: Penne Pasta Salad With Asparagus and Arugula

Great for a quick meal at home or to bring to a potluck dinner.

This room-temperature salad is perfect for a quick evening meal or buffet table (just double the recipe). Feel free to substitute red bell pepper for the yellow, and walnuts for the pine nuts to make it your own. Finish it off with a full-bodied extra virgin olive oil and your best balsamic vinegar to really amplify the flavor!
