Whole-Wheat Noodles With Greens and Ginger Dressing

If we could, we'd write a love letter to pasta. It's always there for us—in good times and bad, in red sauce and pesto. This time, we're adding a green tint with plenty of veggies and plenty of a zingy vinagrette too, becuase how else can we get our noodle-slurp on? Though it seems like a lot, this dinner can be ready in 20 minutes flat. Sounds like a weeknight dream if you ask us.
