Notes

Store-bought or homemade plain, seasoned, or Italian breadcrumbs can be used here. Use any pasta variety based on your preference. If you can't find edamame, you can add green peas instead. Feel free to add or skip veggies based on what you have available. You can totally make this vegan pasta salad without adding any veggies! If you are not vegan, use regular Parmesan cheese.
