Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound uncooked pasta (I used rotini)
2/3 cup (6 ounces) basil pesto
1 (12-ounce) jar artichoke hearts, drained
8 ounces mini mozzarella balls
2 large handfuls baby arugula
2/3 cup sliced Kalamata olives
2/3 cup sliced pepperoncini peppers
2/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes in olive oil, drained
1/2 cup toasted pine nuts or sliced almonds
freshly-grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • Cook the pasta in a large stockpot of generously-salted water until al dente. Drain the pasta in a colander, then immediately rinse with cold water until the pasta is chilled.
  • Add the chilled pasta and pesto to a large mixing bowl and toss until evenly combined. Add the remaining ingredients and gently toss until evenly combined.
  • Serve cold, garnished with freshly-grated Parmesan, and enjoy!
