Pesto Pasta Salad is a flavorful dish inspired by Italian cuisine, blending tender pasta with a rich, herbaceous pesto sauce made from basil, olive oil, Parmesan cheese, garlic, and pine nuts. Typically combined with fresh cherry tomatoes, spinach, and sometimes mozzarella or grilled chicken, this salad offers a balance of vibrant ingredients. Packed with healthy fats from olive oil and nuts, antioxidants from basil and spinach, and fiber from the tomatoes, it’s a wholesome choice. However, calorie-conscious eaters should note that the cheese and oil can make it relatively high in calories and fat. Perfect for a light yet satisfying lunch or side dish, Pesto Pasta Salad delivers a taste of Italy with a hearty nutritional profile.
