Now that summer is in full swing, we're all about BBQs and picnics. This veggie packed sesame noodle pasta salad is always such a hit whether I'm entertaining or bringing it over to a potluck. I find most sesame noodle marinades use peanut butter or soy sauce, but this one uses coco aminos instead so the dressing doesn't overpower the entire dish!
