VEGETABLE PESTO PASTA
If you like pesto, this makes a great pasta dish, especially for using up some of the vegetables from your summer garden. It can be either a side dish or a main dish for supper. The amount of oil required for the pesto is approximate, so be prepared to use more if needed. The pesto directions make more than is needed for the dish, so reserve the extra pesto for another use.
