From previous steps
- Cooked & drained pasta
- Pesto sauce
Step 3: Drain the pasta & toss with the sauce
Once the pasta is cooked, drain & then add to a large mixing bowl. Starting with about half the pesto, toss it with the pasta until the sauce has with any extra water and is clinging to the noodles.
For a really saucy texture, use all of the pesto. For lighter coverage, save the other half of the sauce for another portion of pasta.
At this point, you could save the pesto pasta in the fridge for meal prep, and add toppings for when you are ready to eat.
