Pasta With Seafood and Cabbage

We threw this together one evening when we felt like eating something a little daring! Has anyone ever heard of cabbage being daring? Of course, we had to go to the store for all the ingredients and then come back and cook it! How much fun. It takes 45 minutes including soak time for the pasta, which is made of rice. Updated: 10/23/06 -so as to clarify Notta Pasta(Brand Name) is gluten-free. Also, use gluten-free soy sauce however, we used Kikoman personal preference.
