3/4 lb fusilli pasta
3/4 lb bow tie pasta
1/4 cup olive oil
1 1/2 cups pesto
1 pkg (10 oz) frozen, chopped spinach, defrosted and squeezed dry
1 T lemon juice, freshly squeezed
1 1/4 cups mayonnaise
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1 1/2 cups frozen peas, defrosted
1/3 cup pine nuts
3/4 tsp kosher salt
3/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
Cook the pastas seperately in large pots of boiling, salted water for 10 - 12 minutes until each pasta is al dente. Drain and toss into a bowl with the olive oil. Cool to room temperature.
In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade, puree the pesto, spinach, and lemon juice. Add the mayo and puree. Add the pesto mixture to the cooled pasta and then add the Parmesan, peas, pine nuts, salt and pepper. Mix well, season to taste, and serve at room temperature.
