prepable lunches that wont go soggy - creamy pesto pasta salad One of my favourite lunches, my pesto pasta salad is packed full of protein and has a creamy yoghurt-based pesto dressing that will leave you feeling amazing. store for up to 3 days, swap the protein to any of your choice.  Ingredients to serve 2 large portions 560kcal and 35g protein  120g pasta of choice 150g sweet cherry tomatoes, cut in half 6 sundried tomatoes, roughly diced 140g frozen peas, cooked Handful of rocket or spinach 160-200g cooked chicken or any protein you prefer 3 radishes, thinly sliced 2 spring onions, finely diced Small handful of fresh basil, chopped for the dressing Zest of 1 lemon and juice of half a lemon 2 tbsp green pesto 1 heaped tsp honey 3 heaped tbsp thick yoghurt 20g parmesan, grated Method Bring a pot of salted water to a boil, add the pasta, and cook according to the packet instructions. Drain the pasta, toss with the spring onion and basil to wilt and set it aside to cool. Mix the yoghurt, pesto, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a bowl. Add honey and grated parmesan and stir to combine. Adjust salt and pepper to taste you want it punchy with flavour. If using cooked chicken, shred it into bite-sized pieces. If using other proteins, like prawns or salmon, prepare them as desired. Set aside. In a large bowl, combine the cooled pasta, cherry tomatoes, sundried tomatoes, cooked peas, rocket or spinach, radishes, and your choice of protein. Pour the dressing over the pasta salad, and toss to coat all ingredients evenly. Top the salad with additional parmesan cheese if desired for extra flavor. To keep the salad from drying out, make extra dressing to add just before serving ie if taking into the office. When not serving immediately, store the salad in an airtight container to retain moisture. #mealprep #healthyfood #lunchrecipe - @emthenutritionist
