15-Minute Pesto Pasta Salad
recipe option 01

15-Minute Pesto Pasta Salad

A simple summer pasta salad. Fresh, flavorful, and perfect for warm days when you want something easy to prepare ahead of time.

Ingredients

  • Penne pasta
  • Basil Pesto
  • Lemon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 lemon
  • Fresh tomatoes
  • Fresh basil
  • 1 can of chickpeas
  • Parmigiano reggiano

Instructions

  1. Cook pasta until al dente the day or night before. Drain and rinse under cold water.
  2. Toss the pasta with the full jar of pesto and a generous drizzle of olive oil.
  3. Add chopped tomatoes and chickpeas. Toss gently.
  4. Finish with an extra drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of fresh lemon, and grated parmesan cheese.

Why it works: The pesto adds richness without weighing down the pasta, while the tomatoes, basil, and lemon juice bring the fresh flavors to life. It's light, simple, and perfect for warm-weather lunches, picnics, and effortless entertaining.

We found the ingredients. We built the kit. You bring the cheese and some wine to drink.

You don't have to go to Italy to eat like you are there.

You need a really good olive oil. The right pasta. A pesto worth opening. Some fresh cheese and basil. And in the 15 minutes you were going to spend staring into the fridge, you have a complete meal ready to feed your friends, family or yourself.
