I don't remember where the combination came from for the recipe but I got a tub of the Buitoni Pesto Pasta (It's got a green lid) and forgot what I needed it for, and I saw "add to your favorite pasta" on the lid. I tried Penne, Spaghetti, Fettucini, Rotini, Elbow, and none of them worked right, I finally tried Farfalle(Bowtie) pasta. It worked amazing. I've had no one turn it down yet, even my picky cousins make it for themselves!

Steps:
- Get a pot of water boiling for the pasta, I eyeball it when filling it up.
- Once water is boiling, add pasta, let cook for about 12 minutes, depending on the brand of Farfalle you use.
- After the pasta is finished, drain it, and return it to the pot it was cooked it, make sure the heat is off underneath it. Add the pesto sauce into the pasta and stir until everything is pretty much covered. Add in everything else, and stir til its all combined. Top off with with the Cheese and enjoy!
- NOTE: I've tried using other brands of the Pesto sauce, and I don't like them as much, the basil in the Buitoni is a sweet basil I believe. I don't recommend using a pesto paste either, it tastes very bitter.
