Ingredients

15 mins
4 servings
  1. Dressing
  2. 1/4 cupPesto (I'm using pre-made)
  3. 1 tbspLemon Pepper Seasoning
  4. 1/4 tspSalt and Pepper
  5. 3 tbspExtra Virgin Olive Oil
  6. Salad Ingredients
  7. 1 1/2 cupCheese Ravioli (you may use Tortelini)
  8. 1Romaine Heart
  9. 10Halved Cherry Tomatoes
  10. 1/2 cupDiced Mozzarella
  11. 3Basil Leaves
  12. 1/4 cupGrated Parmesan Cheese

Cooking Instructions

15 mins
  1. 1

    Wisk all of the dressing ingredients together in a bowl and set aside.

  2. 2

    Boil and drain the pasta according to the package instructions.

  3. 3

    While the pasta is still hot, toss the dressing into the pasta. Let it cool down slightly.

  4. 4

    Prep your romaine heart and basil. Rinse and dry your romaine, remove the core, and slice.

  5. 5

    Roughly chop your basil and mix with your romaine.

  6. 6

    Toss the greens, halved cherry tomatoes, and cheeses into your pasta. The warmth of the pasta will slightly wilt the basil and bring out the scent.

  7. 7

    ...and you're done! You may chill the pasta salad or eat while it's warm!
