Method

  • step 1

    Bring a large pan of water to the boil. Add the broccoli, cook for 2 mins, then add the tortellini and cook for 2 mins, or according to pack instructions. Drain everything, gently rinse under cold water until cool, then tip into a bowl. Toss with the pesto, pine nuts and balsamic vinegar. Add the tomatoes, pack into containers and chill. Let the salad get to room temperature during the morning to get the most flavour from the tomatoes and pesto.

A great quick and easy recipe, works well with Spinach and Asparagus too!

It's a perfect lunch to take to work, but also enjoy it as a quick evening dinner

Delicious. My three year old loves this as much as we do. Simple and quick for a speedy dinner. I sometimes add toasted nuts to the top for crunch

Made this with goats cheese and sundried tomatoe ravioli. The mixture of pesto and balsamic vinegar was really nice. Was going to eat half of this for dinner and then the other half for lunch tomorrow but it was so nice I are it all at once. It ended up a very calorific dinner but very filling

If you like pesto a lot then this is for you. If you're a bit neutral, I wouldn't go for it.
