If you like simple salad recipes, today you will like this new recipe! Because this pesto dumpling salad is a recipe, you will make it over and over. We came here on 4 July and this was one of the first dishes to share!
How long is the pasta salad?
The pesto salad will be stored outside the refrigerator for about two hours. Make sure you are not exposed to direct sunlight and move it occasionally to keep it fresh.
If you are lucky to have leftovers, store them in a closed container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. We want to start mass production earlier this week, so we can enjoy a plate of lunch every day! Sometimes we put grilled chicken or shrimp on top for a more delicious dish. I think baked beans will also be delicious!
Expert advice: I do not recommend freezing this recipe. If you store it outside the refrigerator for more than two and a half hours, you are advised to leave food scraps.
