The savory flavor of pesto combines with roasted tomatoes, asparagus and penne pasta to create this magical, very easy weeknight favorite, Asparagus Pesto Pasta with Roasted Tomatoes.
It’s time once again for the Group A reveal of the Secret Recipe Club. This month I made an absolutely fabulous Asparagus Pesto Pasta with Roasted Tomatoes from the blog Cupcake Muffin written by Sara. She has a huge recipe index on her page that has so many wonderful recipes, it was really hard to choose just one.
Some of the other awesome recipes we considered were: Pork Chops with Mustard Sauce and Amazing Potato Gratin, Hazelnut Crunch Coffee Cake, Roasted Asparagus-Orange Salad with Ginger-Citrus Vinaigrette and Killer Scalloped Sweet and White Potatoes in Smoky Hot Sauce.
We settled on this recipe unanimously which hardly ever happens with five teenagers with various tastes. Even my husband was on board. We served it as a side dish with some delicious seasoned pork steaks and it made for a wonderful, flavorful meal.
We love this Asparagus Pesto Pasta with Roasted Tomatoes!
Sara this was fabulous, thank you so much for a recipe I am sure we will be making again and again.

With spring coming this looks like a great recipe to use some of the asparagus that will fload supermarkets!

I can’t wait for asparagus season! This looks so good. I make something similar with tortellini instead of the penne. With pasta, pesto, and fresh veggies, you can’t go wrong! I love color the tomatoes bring to the party.

This dish has so many of our favorite flavors in it. I just roasted some tomatoes the other day and my husband loved it. This may be our next dish to try them in. It never crosses my mind to serve pasta as a side. Great SRC choice!

What a wonderful medley of flavours. Regretfully we are going into autumn in South Africa so this recipe will have to wait till October before I can try it.

I’ve been wanting to make this dish ever since I first saw it posted. I finally have all of the ingredients needed and cant wait to make it. (It’s hard to keep pesto around long in my house, my daughter and I love the stuff on sandwiches).
