The pesto recipe included here makes more than enough needed for the
salad; use leftover pesto for pasta,[favorites].
ChupaNote: this can be made vegan by substituting the Parmesan with a soy
equivalent, or I've substituted 2 T. broth for the Parmesan as well (which
would also cut down on the fat!).
