Vegan macaroni salad with almond dressing
We've already shared our most favorite recipe for vegan potato salad with you that also happens to be the best recipe in the world.
We actually wouldn't go that far with this pasta salad, but only because we like all different kinds of pasta salad – with pesto, good olive oil or with creamy almond yogurt. You can also combine it with almost every vegetable that you can find in your kitchen.
Thanks to the vegan mayonnaise and almond butter, the dressing becomes super creamy and get a deep flavor without ending in a heavy dressing. And did we already mention that it's prepared in no time?
