Name: DAIRY-FREE PESTO PASTA SALAD WITH CHICKEN
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 15 min
Total time: 30 min
Ingredients: 12 oz cooked gluten-free farfalle pasta (I used Jovial Foods brown rice farfalle); 1 + 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved; 1 cup fresh chopped basil leaves; 1 lb cooked chicken breast, cut into 1/2-inch cubes; 1 cup dairy-free pesto (I love this one); juice of 1 lemon; 1/4 cup olive oil; 1 tsp garlic powder; 1 tsp dried oregano; 1 tsp salt; 1/2 tsp black pepper; 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

When I think of warm summer days I automatically think of pasta salad. It just doesn't feel right if I'm hanging out on the patio or by the pool and a chilled bowl of pasta salad isn't present. Knowing that, I also want to spend minimal time in the kitchen on those warm summer days and this dairy-free pesto pasta salad makes it easy to get a pasta salad on the table! Although it's simple, it's also delicious and flavorful. To make it even easier, feel free to use rotisserie chicken or another store-bought fully cooked chicken. It'll be on repeat all summer once you try it!
