This was a big hit when I brought it to my families' Christmas get-together. It made more than we could finish and everyone was asking where I found it. I used kalamata olives. Didn't quite know what olive-cured olives were. Worked great.

This is an awesome recipe. My entire family had seconds and still wanted more. This pasta is very light but extremely tasty. 100% recommended.

I made this dish without the chicken to use as a side dish for a picnic. It was a definite hit and often requested now.

This was a very nice pasta salad. It was easy, tasty and fairly quick to make. My family enjoyed it very much. I followed the directions as stated with the only one exception. I used some sundried tomatoes chopped instead of the yellow tomatoes, that I was unable to find at the grocery store. It still turned on wonderful. This is a keeper recipe that we will enjoy many times to come. Thank you Emeril.

Sorry but I didn't think this was anything great. Also had to use 2 lbs of pasta as it made way too much pesto. Too much arugula flavor, would add more oil, parm, garlic, nuts next time.

I've made this recipe twice and absolutely love it. A very nice, different, pasta salad. Word to the wise- make sure your arugula is good quality, my 2nd try suffered a little when the greens weren't quite "ripe" enough.




Pasta Salad with Aragula Pesto

It is a very nice mix of flavors, and I have never tried pesto before. I would use it as a side dish. It is very easy to make, does not require fancy ingredients. It is a very light dish, but burst of flavor.
