This broccoli pesto pasta salad is one of my favorite summer recipes. It is a great dish to serve at BBQ’s, Picnics, and pool parties. During the hot summer months, I prefer salads as a side over soup. Sometimes I get tired of green salads and like to mix things up with pasta salads. This pasta salad is a fun twist on traditional pasta salad. It’s rich, creamy, and zesty thanks to the cream cheese and lemon juice. As it cools, the pasta absorbs the flavor of the dressing so its packed full of flavor. If you’re looking for a dish to bring to your next summer party give this broccoli pesto pasta salad a try.
