My friend Shawna made this for me for lunch a few weeks ago and it was so delicious. A hearty, yet light lunch. She told me she got it out of the Dinner Doctor cookbook, which I happen to have. So I immediately put it on the menu. Shawna adds 1/4 cup of red onion to the penne salad, so I did too. This is really good and even better the next day. You can serve it slightly warm or cold. If you serve warm, add a little extra balsamic.
