Leftovers

Again, excuse the iMac photo.
Since my husband is out of town, I am loving the leftovers. I used my leftover pesto for dinner tonight.
Pesto Pasta

1/2 recipe of basil pesto
Sauteed zucchini
Sundried tomatoes (to taste, I think the sweetness is a great contrast to the salty pesto, so I use a lot)
Cooked pasta

When pasta is cooked, drain, saving a small amount of pasta water. Return pasta to hot pot with zucchini and sundried tomatoes. Add pesto, stir until just warmed, adding reserved pasta water to thin if needed.
This would also be great with chicken.
