191001 - Recipe Tuesday - "Pesto Pasta Salad"

In May, we posted a recipe for some super scrumptious “Caprese Chicken” (See link)

Today’s recipe is for a side dish that goes perfectly with that chicken but it’s a true gem for any Mediterranean meal! If you’re looking for low carb, this isn’t the best BUT the good news is that by adding plenty of veggies to the volume of the dish, you don’t need as many noodles which means less carbs overall!

INGREDIENTS
Radiotore Noodles
Cucumbers
Grape/Cherry Tomatoes
Feta/Goat Cheese
Pesto

DIRECTIONS
- Cook up noodles according to the directions, then drain and chill!
- Chop the cucumbers into large chunks and the lil’ tomaters in half!
- Mix all ingredients together and top with as much pesto as your heart desires!
- Drizzle a little balsamic on top for added flavor!
- ENJOY!
