  • 3 tablespoons pesto
  • 4 tbsp Hellmann's Real Mayonnaise
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 1 Cook the pasta until al dente following the instructions on the packet. For penne, around nine to eleven minutes usually does the trick.
  • 2 Drain in a colander, tip the cooked penne into cold water, and then drain in the colander once again so that the penne cools.
  • 3 Take the pine nuts, and toast on a non-stick frying pan on a medium high heat, using no oil.
  • 4 Stir the pesto and Hellmann's Real Mayonnaise into the cool penne along with the lemon juice and black pepper.
  • 5 Serve in a bowl, sprinkle with parmesan, and garnish with the toasted pine nuts.
  • 6 Allow yourself a quick snooze.
