3. Drain, and then add the container of pesto and the tomatoes.
4. Refrigerate.
Also, the pp is right - I presume you are using the pesto from the refrigerator case, not the jar. The jar stuff is never very good.
Yes, the refrigerator.

In my experience, the pre-made pesto is where pesto pasta salads tend to go wrong. The Costco kind is okay.
My preferred pasta salad is pasta, feta, halved cherry tomatoes, baby spinach, cucumber, and olives. Pesto goes well with it. If you don't like feta, you can switch out any cheese and it still works. But it works a lot better with non-jar pesto.

Anyone have a recipe they can recommend? I plan to use the premade pesto from costco because that’s what I have.
