One Pot Pasta with Sun-dried Tomato Pesto, Peas and Cannellini Beans

A quick one pot weeknight dinner recipe which I threw together one evening when I was short on time. I added some extra sun dried tomatoes for texture and flavour.

Serves 2

Ingredients
200g pasta
200g peas
50g sun dried tomatoes, chopped + 1 tbsp oil from tomatoes
1 x 400g tin cannellini beans, drained
95g (half a jar) tomato pesto
salt and pepper, to taste
cheese, to taste

Instructions

1. Bring a large pan of water to the boil. Add pasta and cook for 5 minutes.
2. Add peas and cannellini beans to water and continue to boil until pasta is cooked.
3. Drain, return pasta mix to the pan, and stir through the tomato pesto.
4. Add chopped sun dried tomatoes and extra oil, and stir.

Season with salt and pepper as desired, and serve with cheese (optional).
