This refreshing roasted bell pepper pasta salad is a vibrant and flavorful side dish. The smoky sweetness of roasted red bell peppers is blended into a zesty sauce with lemon, garlic, and a hint of agave, creating a delicious coating for fusilli pasta. Tossed with peppery arugula, juicy cherry tomatoes, and crisp cucumber, this salad is light, fresh, and satisfying.

This was delicious! I especially love the sauce/dressing (like another commenter, I used canned peppers because it is too hot in Spain for the oven. Next time, I’m going to add some chickpeas or vegan feta for an extra hit of protein!

Loved it! Easy and quick but still delicious! As it's pretty hot here in Barcelona I used precooked red peppers to avoid using the oven, still perfect!

Very easy to make. I wasn't too fond of the arugula in this, but the dressing will work with any good salad base, so definitely making it again.

very tasty, just peeling the bell peppers was messy and took more time than expected

I made this today for friends who came over for lunch and I am happy to report they asked for the recipe. It was super tasty and worth the little bit of effort that goes into roasting and skinning the peppers!
