About the Recipe
Ingredients
400g pasta
4-5 tbsp fresh pesto
1 tbsp mayonnaise
2 tbsp Greek yogurt
½ lemon, juiced
200g mixed cooked veg such as peas, green beans, courgette (chop the beans and courgette into pea-sized pieces)
100g cherry tomatoes, quartered
200g cooked chicken, ham, prawns, hard-boiled egg or cheese
Preparation
Cook the pasta in boiling water until it is al dente, so about 11 mins, but refer to the pack instructions. Drain and tip into a bowl.
Stir in the pesto and leave to cool.
When the pasta is cool, stir through the mayo, yogurt, lemon juice and veg.
Spoon into lunchboxes or on to pasta plates and put the cooked chicken or protein of your choice on top. Chill until ready to eat if intended for a packed lunch.
