Recipe for pasta salad with pesto, broccoli, and avocado

Light and delicious creamy pasta salad, which can be made with little effort but tastes really good! The pasta is tossed with green pesto, avocado, broccoli, pears, crumbled feta, and pumpkin seeds. It’s ready in no time and tastes delicious…

It can be eaten as a meal on its own with some toasted rye bread, but it would also be great as a side dish to a nice piece of beef, meatballs, etc. If you feel like it needs a bit of meat, you can sprinkle some crispy bacon on top.
