Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain well. (Pasta can be made in advance and refrigerated for a day or two.)
Cook vegetables according to package directions. Let cool. (Veggies can be cooked in advance and refrigerated.)
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well. Adjust seasonings to taste.
Chill at least two or three hours or overnight to allow flavors to blend.
Notes:
Do not freeze.
Variations:
If you don’t have pesto on hand, add 2 cloves of freshly crushed garlic and 3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese. For a parve version, omit the cheese.
