Cabbage Salad with Pasta!

For the lunchbox I think pasta salad is a breath of fresh air and a healthy alternative to sandwiches. In regards to this salad, you could almost inquire, "would you like some pasta with your cabbage?"

  • 1 pound bow-tie pasta- cooked, tossed with olive oil, cooled
  • 1 head chinese cabbage- chiffonade
  • 2 links Wellshire Farms chorizo- medium dice
  • green onions (green and white parts)- thinly sliced
  • celery- 1-inch pieces thinly sliced on the bias
  • 1/2 to 1 cup of your favorite homemade red wine vinaigrette.
  • cheese would be a nice addition
I initially tossed the salad together with 1/2 cup of dressing. By the next morning the pasta had absorbed most of the dressing, so I tossed in another 1/4 cup.
