Charrred Tomato Pasta Jars

I love pasta and nothing says delicious and convenient like a fast, fresh, and easy healthy pasta salad. It's not easy to find a really good organic gluten free pasta but Tresomega has risen to the occasion. November is always a hectic month for me so I came up with these individual Charrred Tomato Pasta  Jars using their Quinoa Fusilli Pasta. Using 5 pint jars makes it convenient for quick meals at home or keeping in your office desk. Make a double batch and share with friends!



After charring the tomatoes I briefly cooked the veggies in some Tresomega Coconut Oil. By sauteing for just a few minutes it brought out a deeper rustic flavor.


Tresomega has a variety of pasta's, all gluten free and organic. You can buy on the Tresomega.com website, Sams.com, Amazon.com and Walmart.com
