INSTRUCTIONS

Bring 6 quarts of lightly salted water to a boil in a large covered pot
over high heat. Stir in the pasta shells. After the pasta has cooked to
within 5 minutes of the cooking time according to the package directions,
add the asparagus. Continue cooking for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally,
until the pasta is cooked and the asparagus is crisp-tender. Drain the
pasta and asparagus. Rinse under cold water, then drain again. Turn into a
bowl. Add the tofu, tomato, and pecans. Toss gently but thoroughly to

In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, orange juice, lime zest,

Notes: Asparagus and pecans are delicious together. Here they are combined
with tiny cubes of firm tofu gently tossed in an orange and lime flavored
vinaigrette.
