Broccoli, Turkey & Pesto Pasta Salad

Fast, rich and fresh. Pasta salad with broccoli, turkey and mild pesto is a great choice for a box lunch or light dinner. The combination of legume pasta, juicy broccoli, cherry tomatoes and arugula adds fiber, lightness and color to the salad, while the protein from the meat, cheese and pesto will keep you reliably full. And the best part? Pile crispy roasted jasmine rice on top to give every bite extra texture and pizzazz. One serving is only 447 kcal, but it's a hefty 34 g of protein. It tastes great cold too, so perfect for mealprep or lunch to go. 🥗
