The Dressing
The Veggies
Instructions:
Add salt and garlic cloves to a 4 quart pot 2/3 full of water and start it a-boiling. While your water heats up, whisk together the ingredients for the dressing in a large bowl, and keep it in the fridge until you're ready for it. When the water's boiling, add the pasta and cook for 6-7 minutes or until the the pasta is almost al dente.
While the pasta cooks, add the frozen peas and grated carrot into the colander you'll use to drain the pasta. When the pasta's done, drain into the vegetable-laden colander and then give it all a good rinse under cold water. Drain well, and stir to combine with the dressing.
Notes:
Notes: Prep time doesn't include the minimum of 3 or so hours of fridge time it'll takes to strain yogurt. Use Greek yogurt if you're impatient.
Also, this is a dish best served right after it's made, but if you gotta make it a day ahead, then hit it with a splash of milk and a pinch of salt before you throw the bowl on the chow line.
