Found this by doing a web search. Definitely not my own. I always add some sliced onions and top with parmesan chicken.

This dish is a bit too heavy for my taste. I would recommend using less oil in the pesto sauce.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra garlic and Parmesan cheese to give it more flavor.

This dish was a bit too heavy for my taste. The pesto sauce was very rich and the cavatappi was a bit too al dente.

This pesto cavatappi was a huge hit with my family! The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the cavatappi cooked perfectly. I added some grilled chicken and vegetables to make it a complete meal.
