Ingredients
- 8 ounce fettuccine pasta, dry
- 3 cup green beans
- 1 cup pesto
- 3 ounce Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Serve With
- 2 medium mango
Instructions
- Cook pasta according to package directions; add the green beans to the pasta during the last 4-5 minutes of cook time. Drain beans and pasta, reserving 1 cup of cooking liquid.
