Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This vibrant green pesto, peas and spinach pasta salad recipe is another one from a small selection of pasta salad recipes that appeared in the July 2018 Olive Magazine.   If you love pesto then this pasta salad is a winner, along with the freshness from the peas and spinach.   It's also very quick and easy to make, perfect to enjoy for lunch or serve at a buffet, at a BBQ or to take on a picnic.

We currently have spinach growing in our veg patch, so it was great to be able to use homegrown rather than shop bought for a change.

Tips

  • Give this a try with fresh peas if you can get them.
  • This pasta salad recipe is easily adapted if you’re cooking for less or more people.
