Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salty water to a roaring boil and cook pasta according to package instructions.
- Add the green beans and corn to the pot 2 minutes before the pasta is estimated to be done cooking.
- Drain the pasta, beans and corn in a strainer and place in a large bowl.
- Drizzle in the pesto and toss well to combine. Check for seasoning and add salt and pepper to taste (or more pesto if you wish!)
- Garnish with grated parmesan cheese to serve.
Notes
- While I prefer to use fresh green beans, you could also use frozen or canned.
