Pasta Pesto And Potatoes Recipe

Pasta Pesto and Potatoes

From whodunitrdr 15 years ago

This is a traditional Italian dish that all cooks in the same pot. It goes great with a steak or some grilled chicken. Recipe from Easy Home Cooking.

Bring 4 quarts of water to boil in large pot.
Add potatoes, cut into chunks, and cook over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes.
Add frozen green beans, cook for 3 minutes.
Add pasta, cook, uncovered, 8 to 10 minutes or until pasta is al dente and potatoes are done.
Drain, reserving a small amount of pasta cooking water.
Return pasta and vegetables to pot, add olive oil, pesto and cheese.
Toss lightly to coat, add salt and pepper to taste.
Add small amount of reserved cooking water if sauce seems too thick.
Serve immediately.
