CREAMY PESTO CHICKEN PENNE SALAD

Such a quick, yummy and handy recipe to have up your sleeve. The perfect midweek lunch or dinner salad - quick to whip up and so so tasty!!!!

Serves 2

Ingredients:

• 1 cup baby spinach, chopped

• 1 cup cooked pasta, I used penne

• 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes

• 1 Lebanese cucumber, cut into half moons

• 1 cup cooked chicken

• 3 spring onions, finely sliced

• 1/4 cup silvered almonds, toasted

• Sea salt

• Black pepper

  Dressing:

• 2 tbsp @rozas.gourmet traditional pesto

• 3 tbsp natural/greek yoghurt

• 1-2 tbsp water (added slowly)

Method :

1. For the dressing, mix together the @rozas.gourmet traditional pesto and the natural/Greek yoghurt. Add a teaspoon at a time of water until you reach your desired consistency, it should be runny enough to drizzle over the salad but remains creamy.

2. In a large bowl, add the spinach, cooked pasta, sun-dried tomatoes, cucumber, cooked chicken, spring onion, and almonds and season really well. Drizzle over the dressing and serve.
