Now that summer is just around the corner, I am revising my lunch menus to include foods that use less energy to heat up and are quick and tasty. Pasta salad is a typical side dish that has many variations. Below I share a vegan pasta salad that we enjoyed as family. My kids are not fond of raw onions so next times I will use chives to add flavor.

Cool the macaroni with cool water. Let your kids help you combine all measured ingredients together. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Serve.
