Today's recipe combines two of my favorite things, spicy pico de gallo and delicious pasta. However, the pasta in this recipe is unlike any I have ever had before because it is seaweed pasta. And I am here to tell you, seaweed pasta is quite tasty.
This pasta, created by Blue Evolution, is made with a blend of durum wheat and seaweed. It really doesn't taste like seaweed though. Instead it has a delicate flavor and a delicious, yet subtle, umami taste. Better yet, it is much healthier than regular pasta because it is a great source of plant-based iodine, magnesium, and iron.
Blue Evolution Seaweed Pasta can be combined with your favorite sauce, but you are definitely going to want to try it in this Pico de Gallo Seaweed Pasta. The citrus-flavor, spiciness, and freshness of pico de gallo are perfect with this pasta, plus it is so easy to make and is a great side dish.
