Day 3 - Pesto Pasta Salad

This is one of those recipes where I, honestly, smack my forehead (hard) and wonder, "Why didn't I think of that?" Hopefully, that smack knocks creative sense into me after I read over this delicious and easy recipe (another fine example from Francesca in Seattle) and whip up a fabulous meal:

1. Take one bag of mushroom or cheese TORTELLINI and dump it into a pan of boiling water. Cook according to package directions.

2. Toss into a huge bowl with 2 jars of PESTO SAUCE. Add OLIVE OIL, SALT and cracked PEPPER to taste.

OMG! Only 2 main directions! She must be a genius... If eating in summer, pop in the fridge to chill and pair with a cool white wine, such as an unoaked Chardonnay or Semillon. Yeah, that sounds about right...
