- 1/2 onion, diced
- 16 garlic cloves, minced

- olive oil
- salt
- pepper
- crushed red pepper
- fresh basil, diced

To Make:
Boil a pot of salted water and cook the pasta according to the package, about 8 minutes or until al-dente.

In the meantime, drizzle olive oil into a large pan and cook the onions, red peppers, garlic and celery for about 10 minutes on medium high heat, stirring frequently until tender. Season with salt and pepper.

Drain the pasta and place in a large serving bowl. Drizzle with olive oil. Mix in the cooked vegetables and carrots.

Slowly add in the bottom of Annie's Asian Sesame Dressing and mix together, adding more salt and pepper to taste. Also, add in the crushed red pepper to taste.

Lastly, shred the fresh basil and add that on top.

Serve at room temperate or cold. Delicious either way!
