- Cut a courgette into a chinky peaces and put them on the grill for 2 mins each side.
- Cook peas and soya bean in boling salted water for 4-5 mins, then tip into a big bowl of ice cold water to keep their bright green colour. Drain and set aside.
- Take a big bowl and add all the vegetables together with 2 tbsp of the pesto and give them a good stir. Serve on a plate and sprinkle with some parmesan cheese on top. Enjoy
