Trofie with zucchini and walnut pesto
This recipe was prepared by Emanuela who chose our Trofie paired with a zucchini and walnut pesto.
It is a first course rich in nutrients but also a valid single dish for those with a calorie deficit, it will be tasty even without grated cheese.
Our traditional trofie are a tribute to Ligurian cuisine and combined with Genoese pesto they represent a great classic. The addition of walnuts makes it even more flavorful and nutritious. A perfect solution for the whole family.
Thanks Emanuela for your delicious recipe!
