Fridge Pasta Plate

Whole wheat penne + knock-your-socks-off spicy stock + stir-fried bok choy + spicy cocktail peanuts + salsa + mixed bean salad = lime juice + homemade mustard seeds + capers + hot sauce + pickled peppers = one awesome plate of pasta.

The spicy stock was made in advance and made with a bunch of herbs and spices for tons of flavor. Then I cooked the pasta right in the stock to let it absorb all that delicious flavor. I reserved a little after draining for the sauce, and stirred in the remaining ingredients and garnished! Delicious hot or as cold pasta salad and makes a quick and easy dinner. That's what I like to call fridge diving.
