I just made this and it was a hit!!!!! Soooo good. A great balance of flavors. My husband loved this dish. Thank you for your inspiring channel. Good vibes.

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Lovely to hear that, Yvonne! So happy you and your husband enjoyed this dish!

[@lauratempestini5719]

Did you serve to anyone less adventurous with their palette? Curious how the general public would like it?

[@belindaknowles7440]

My family loves regular old pasta salad, lol. When I try to switch it up, I get complaints. This does look amazing and I will try it for myself or maybe bring both to our cook outs. Thanks for sharing😊

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Haha that’s hilarious. I love the idea of bringing both. Or maybe you can just make it and call it roasted red pepper pasta, and that way they won’t feel like their classic pasta salad is being stepped on 😉

[@booyah2217]

Do reply with an update!! How did they like it?

[@id10t98]

@@RainbowPlantLife Decades ago nobody wanted to eat "spider crab". Then someone changed the name to "King Crab" and the rest is history.

[@johnsullivan1560]

Oh, wow, have to try this! Your sauce is basically muhammara, which I LOVE. Breadcrumbs, walnuts, red pepper, sauteed onion - the spices are a bit different: cumin and aleppo pepper, which gives it that smoky flavor with very subtle heat. I make it a lot but just use it as a dip for pita bread like hummus. Never thought of using it in a pasta salad, but that looks absolutely fantastic! Thank you!

[@lauratempestini5719]

What ethnic recipe is the muhummara?

[@johnsullivan1560]

@@lauratempestini5719 I believe it's Syrian in origin, but I'm no expert.

[@puerry]

I love how everything you describe while making dishes is like treating cooking as an art form! So creative and I'm 100% making this it looks so yummy TwT

[@46rebecca]

I just made it and it tastes sooooooo good! I made this for my lunches this week and I am so looking forward to my lunch! Thank you so much Nisha! Your channel and blog made it so much easier to be a vegan, at least when I cook for myself, and I do not crave for anything else. I am more excited to eat at home than outside. Tried many different receipts from your blog as well and they are all super tasty. You made me think I am starting to become a good cook now, as long as I follow your recipes! Really love your work! Thank you so much!!!😁🙏💕👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@oggy06]

i’ve never tasted a romesco sauce but the ingredients of it remind me of the (syrian) muhammara dip which is divine, i must try this asap! thank you for the recipe

[@floriancantzler6459]

I’ve made this soooo many times yet, since Claire Saffitz made this for Bon Appetit several years ago. It is my favourite pasta salad ever. Romesco sauce is the best!

[@tangoangel2782]

Did you use the same amount of spices and salt?

[@townsendstephen]

I regularly do batch pasta salads with either pesto sauce or a cashew sauce but I like the look of this one. 👌

[@stephanielemberg270]

[@magnoliab928]

Being from the Midwest, pasta salads are all the same. I never knew it could be like what you just did-magic😂 can’t wait to make this. Thank you for your creativity and enjoyable videos.

[@emmawashington]

I have never really been a fan of pasta salad because they're either undercooked or stodgy or way too vinegary. But this looks amazing!! So many of my fav ingredients and so fresh. I think you may have just convinced me to try one again!!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

I’m honored I could convince you to give it another go, Emma!

[@emmawashington]

@@RainbowPlantLife you did the same with your hummus so I don't doubt I'll love this too!

I make ranch pasta salads, Italian dressing, lemon olive etc, the changes are endless, ty for this totally different idea anxious to try this one.

[@friedrice207]

OMG this feels like fate. i got some roasted red peppers on a whim yesterday while i was stocking my pantry so now i have to try this recipe. looks delicious!

@7:42, when you said, "oooo, can you hear it?", years ago I once told my sister, "That's the sound of food" lol

[@sragdharaghosh3582]

I loved the idea. My fiancee loves pasta, I am going to share it with him. He is having difficulty adjusting to new food in a new city. This will definitely bright him up

[@katthefig]

Usually pasta salad in Australia is just like creamy potato salad. Made with mayo and celery bits. This looks way yummier.

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Here in the states we called that macaroni salad, but yes, it has never appealed to me that much either!

[@connorbriarly655]

[@kateliness2]

My favorite pasta salad I make is kind of Mediterranean inspired with olives and artichokes and a lemony dressing. But this also looks amazing 👏

[@RS-wl4mp]

I constantly check your website for new recipes to try and was excited to see this one. I made it earlier this week and I can confirm that it, like all of your other recipes, is absolutely delicious. Can't wait to see what incredible dish you come out with next!

My grandma always makes pasta salad with mayonnaise, pickles, eggs, sausage that is kinda similar to wiener sausage and called Fleischwurst in German and we eat that every year for Christmas dinner

[@eva-w]

: ) wir essen das Gleiche an Heiligabend, nur Kartoffeln statt Nudeln, und ohne Wurst. Boah, mir läuft das Wasser im Mund zusammen!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Pasta salad is definitely a great office lunch! Thanks Ramya!

[@craigjeffries]

Nisha, this pasta salad looks so good. America's Test Kitchen made a pasta salad that had a thick sauce similar to this that used pepperoncini peppers, but it looked too spicy for me. I can't wait to try this. Thanks for your hard work!

[@RainbowPlantLife]

Of course, I hope you will love it! Maybe just go easy on the red pepper flakes in this recipe for spicy food isn’t your jam 😉

[@jespinoza9907]

[@Alina_Schmidt]

Maybe you could use bread that has gone dry and then crush it to crumbs (without toasting in the oven). Saves bread that is otherwise not eaten.

[@autumnmaddox4059]

I added like 1/4 cup nutritional yeast it was BOMB

[@noareth]

If you want a really good Spanish paprika, look for de words "pimentón de la vera". It's the best paprika you will find. And also Spanish olive oil will make a difference. I'm gonna try this recipe, looks incredible

[@michaelmcnally1242]

Instead of or in addition to the jarred peppers, one could use some sun-dried tomatoes in oil (or whatever that stuff is).

[@RainbowPlantLife]

I think that would be a super fun addition! I love sun-dried tomatoes!

[@lyndajane9870]

great video and love the pics on your printable recipe page
