Cook the pasta in boiling
water until it is al dente, so about 11 mins, but refer to
packet instructions. Drain and tip into a bowl. Stir in
the pesto and leave to cool.
-
When the pasta is cool, stir
through the mayo, yoghurt, lemon juice, and veg. Spoon
into lunch box or on to plates and put the cooked chicken
or protein of your choice on top. Chill until ready to eat
if intended for a packed lunch.
