Инструкции

  1. Bring 6 qts of lightly salted water to a boil in a large covered pot over high heat. Stir in the pasta shells. After the pasta has cooked to within 5 min of the cooking time according to the package directions, add in the asparagus. Continue cooking for 5 min, stirring occasionally, till the pasta is cooked and the asparagus is crisp-tender. Drain the pasta and asparagus. Rinse under cool water, then drain again. Turn into a bowl. Add in the tofu, tomato, and pecans. Toss gently but thoroughly to combine, using two spoons.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, orange juice, lime zest, lime juice and shallot. Slowly add in the soy lowfat milk, whisking to combine. Whisk in salt and pepper to taste. Pour this over the pasta salad. Toss well to coat, using two spoons. Taste for seasonings. Serve immediately or possibly chilled.
