Method :
- 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.
- 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.
