Picnic with rPET: pasta pesto with cherry tomatoes & basil
A picnic is the perfect moment to enjoy good food, great company, and the outdoors. And what could be better than a fresh, homemade pasta pesto with cherry tomatoes and basil? Thanks to Point-Virgule’s rPET collection, preparing, transporting, and serving your dish becomes both stylish and sustainable.
How to make?
1. Cook the pasta
Cook the pasta until al dente and drain using the rPET colander. Made from recycled plastic bottles, this colander is not only practical for the kitchen but also eco-friendly.
2. Make fresh pesto:
In a blender or food processor, combine basil, pine nuts, parmesan, garlic, and olive oil. Blend until smooth and season with salt and pepper.
3. Combine everything
Place the drained pasta in the big rPET serving bowl and mix gently with the pesto. Halve the cherry tomatoes and add them for a fresh, juicy touch. Use the rPET salad servers to mix evenly and easily. Finally, add some fresh basil leaves to finish it off.
4. Serve in style
Take your picnic to the next level! Use the rPET serving tray to easily carry the pasta, and extras like bread, salad, or fruit outside. Complete the setup with matching mugs for drinks, creating a coordinated and stylish picnic table.
