I’m synning these at 1 syn per pot only because
the pesto is 1/3 a syn per portion and I was slightly over generous with the
feta. Remember whatever cheese you use
to take it from your HEA allowance or syn it!
This makes four portions. I know there are only three in the pictures,
but I ate one and had the rest for lunches!
I wouldn’t recommend leaving it longer than that anyway as there’s chicken/rocket
and feta in there. Day three was good
still but I wouldn’t do a day four – it’s time for something else.
Ingredients
Now just add what you like. As a guide this is what I used, my
measurements are random but this really was a ’use it all up’ recipe
Pasta cooked and cooled – use the portion guide
on the packet depending on how hungry you are and how many you’re cooking
for. A tip tough, when your pasta is
cooling sprat with frylite, it will stop it sticking together and clumping
1 bag rocket
I small packet cherry tomatoes halved
1 pepper seeded and cut into bite size
chunks
Slimming world sausages sliced into bite
sized chunks
Baked cold chicken (mine was piri piri) cut
into bite sized chunks
Feta cheese (use your HEA)
1 tablespoon low fat green pesto (mine is
from Tesco)
Method
When the pasta is slightly warm put in a large
mixing bowl, add the pesto and mix thoroughly and set to one side to finish
cooling.

As the pasta is warm it is
easier to coat the shapes but if it’s cold don’t worry, just be sure you don’t
have any big dollops in there. I added my
pesto to cold pasta and it was fine, but I did make a note to self that it would’ve
been easier beforehand
Now add everything else except the feta and
mix until everything’s evenly blended.
Then add your feta and mix again – this way stops the feta chunks from
being broken down too much...that’s it!
Low syn pasta salad in a hurry |
Divide into your lunch box portions and pop
in the fridge – it doesn’t get much easier than that!
