I'm not a huge fan of pesto, but this recipe was surprisingly good! The charred green onions added a nice smokiness and the cashews and cranberries gave it a nice crunch. I would definitely make it again!

Not bad! I liked the pesto and the cashews added a nice crunch. However, I found the cranberries to be a bit too tart for my taste. Overall, it was a good dish, but I would probably make a few adjustments next time.

This recipe was a bit of a let down. The pesto was bland and the cashews and cranberries were too sweet for my taste. I ended up adding some extra garlic and red pepper flakes to give it some flavor. It was okay, but I won't be making it again.

This pasta dish is a keeper! Loved the combination of charred green onions, cashews, cranberries, and pesto. I added some grilled chicken for extra protein. Hubby and kids all loved it. Will definitely make it again!

I'm always skeptical of gluten-free pasta, but this Barilla rotini was a game-changer! It held up well during cooking and had a great texture. The pesto was also delicious and flavorful. Will definitely be making this again!

This pesto pasta is a delightful symphony of flavors! The charred green onions add a smoky depth, while the cashews and cranberries provide a delightful crunch and tartness. The Barilla gluten-free rotini holds the sauce perfectly. I highly recommend
