Pow Pasta

Recipe from Alice's Kitchen

Makes 2 very generous servings

I bought some Pow Pasta (Red Lentil Rotini) and decided to give it a try with bits and pieces of things that I had in my fridge/pantry.  The hubster and I ate the ENTIRE dish in one sitting.  The pasta by itself seemed a bit gummy, but with all the lovely additions, we didn't notice.  Here's how I put this yummy dinner together.  (The measurements are approximate.)

1 cup fresh mozzarella, cut into small cubes

½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese

1/3 cup Fennel Pistachio Pesto or regular pesto

2 cups baby greens

1/3 cup marinated artichokes, roughly chopped

¼ cup Spicy Pepitas

8 oz. box of Pow Pasta (red lentil rotini), cooked per package instructions

Put everything in a bowl and toss with the hot pasta.  The heat from the pasta will loosen the pesto and wilt the greens.
