PESTO PASTA WITH CHICKEN
Easy and delicious pasta with chicken. Serve with crusty bread and salad for a quick dinner. Use as much or as little pesto sauce as you like. Using homemade pesto will taste even better, but it adds to prep time. Enjoy!

CHICKEN PESTO PASTA
This is a nice simple to prepare & tasty pasta, if you don't have sun-dried tomatoes just use some fresh chopped ones & you can also experiment with different flavoured pestos, I usually use basil pesto but will be trying sun-dried tomato pesto next time.
