Pesto Pasta Salad

A great use of some freshly made pesto, and makes a salad that keeps well, and is great for lunch boxes. I use risoni which is a pasta that is shaped a bit like rice, but any small pasta will work.

• 1/2 cup risoni pasta, cooked as per packet instructions

• 1 punnet cherry tomatoes, halved - or diced larger tomatoes

• 1 cucumber, diced

• 1 capsicum, diced

• a few handfuls lettuce, kale or any salad leaves (kale will keep longer), sliced if needed

• 4 Tbsp pesto

Mix cooked pasta with cherry tomatoes

Add pesto, mix well and add the rest of the ingredients
