Ok, so the holidays are nearly over, but why not keep the festivities going with more delicious and festive food? For me, cranberries are a big part of holiday recipes. I love making my Cranberry Sauce or even a Cranberry Bundt Cake. So why not a pasta salad?

Fresh foods are important. Fresh tasting foods even better. Since fresh cranberries are not always in season, using the dried version gives this holiday pasta salad a little sweet, a little tart and all around goodness.

Paried with pasta, it’s even better. I’ve been working to eat healthier and that’s where Tres Omega Gluten Free Pasta comes into play. Many peple I know think gluten free means flavor free, but that’s not the case here. Tres Omega Gluten Free Penne Pasta was just perfect for this pasta salad and there was no shortage of flavor here.

I made this to go with some salmon since I thought the fresh flavors of my holiday pasta salad would go great with a seasoned, and slightly spicy, fresh fish.
