Scroll down for the full recipe!

After what seems like a month of solid rain, the UK has finally had some sun! Every time that yellow ball comes out in this sky, I crave something light and summery.

I love salads and have a newfound love of a pasta salad.

The beauty of these is that you can really freestyle and throw in as many veggies and salad items as you like.

I actually made this to take with me for a picnic. I wasn't planning on doing it as a recipe, but posted it on my Instagram stories and HUNDREDS of you voted to see the full recipe.


This recipe is super simple but is just so tasty! It would work really well for 'take to work' lunches as well.

I used some ready-made Pesto for this dish, but check out this post for my pesto recipe if you're looking to save some extra calories!
