This photo doesn't do the vibrance of the pesto and beans justice. It was so sunny out last night during dinner I had no clue what I was looking at!

Pasta alla genovese
I love pasta with pesto. I love pesto full stop. Last night I whipped up a simple and delicious summer supper using JUST ONE POT (a total miracle for me!)...This recipe comes together really quickly. The new potatoes are cut into thin disks and I've used fresh broad beans instead of french beans (that's what I had). Boil up the pasta, chuck in the potatoes and beans after about 6 minutes and cook until everything is al dente (how posh), then drain and toss with some pesto, a touch more olive oil, salt and pepper, chopped basil and loads of parmesean cheese! YUM YUM YUM.
