About Southwest pasta salad

Southwest Pasta Salad is a vibrant, flavor-packed dish inspired by the bold and zesty tastes of Southwestern cuisine. This salad features spiral pasta mixed with colorful bell peppers, black beans, sweet corn, cherry tomatoes, and red onions, all tossed in a creamy avocado-lime dressing with a hint of chili powder and cumin for a smoky kick. High in plant-based protein from black beans and fiber-rich vegetables, it's a filling and nutritious choice. Avocado and olive oil provide healthy fats to support heart health, while the dish remains vegetarian-friendly. However, the creamy dressing adds calories and fat, so portion control is recommended for those watching caloric intake. Southwest Pasta Salad is perfect as a light meal or a flavorful side dish, offering a satisfying balance of tangy, spicy, and fresh ingredients.
