The Newbie Kind of Fruity Tutti

We've all heard of normal pasta, and many of us have at least glimpsed--or shied away from--whole wheat or spinach pasta. But have you ever tried fruit pasta? In case you haven't, it's delicious! Our favorite kind is from a brand named Papparadelle's TM THE FINE ART OF PASTA. And what a fine, tasty art it is. My favorite type of pasta from the selection of their Fine Arts is irrefutably the Fanciful Fruit Blend. It is a short rotini pasta (kind of like a corkscrew), and, best of all...colorful!! It's just so much more fun to eat things when they're colorful, don't you think? 

And it doesn't stop there; the pastas are made with fruit, and are the colors of the flavors that they represent (and, no, there is absolutely no food dye used in the process of making them). It's one of my favorite pastas because it's yummy, fun, pretty, and fruity! You can serve it warm, or--as it is delicious this way--you can cool the pasta and add chopped or sliced fruit into the bowl with it to serve. 
This pasta's good for summertime and spring, but it's also perfect for fall, too. The combination of the colored oranges, yellows, greens, and purples of the pasta mixed with the bright red of strawberries, the blushing sunflower color of peaches, or the pop of color of a blueberry is a yummy, upbeat way to add color, flavor, and fun to any meal! Please note: I have dressed this post in colors of the fruity pretty pasta. For emphasis, I suppose.
