Red Pesto Chicken Pasta Bowl
This Red Pesto Chicken Pasta Bowl is a quick and easy dish that's perfect for easy weeknight dinners or meal prepping lunches in advance. It is a versatile recipe and you can use your own favourite vegetables and protein, but I find the ingredients listed offer a delightful balance of savory, nutty, and aromatic flavours.
The vibrant red pesto, which is often overlooked in favour of traditional green pesto, is made from sun-dried tomatoes, basil, garlic, pine nuts, and Parmesan cheese. Mixing it with mayonnaise allows the sauce to go further and give a creamy taste without overpowering the dish. This is further complimented by the extra parmesan cheese, giving added saltiness which is balanced by the juicy fresh tomatoe
s.
This pasta salad recipe is another fantastic meal prep option.
All of the ingredients are tossed together in one big bowl, making this a quick and easy recipe to throw together.
A mixture of mayonnaise and red pesto gives this dish a creamy yet vibrant and herby flavour.
