Light, yet full of flavor, this bright pesto is perfect tossed with your favorite tortelloni. We used our new Tomato & Feta Tortelloni to add a kick of sweet heat! It's a great dish that allows you to enjoy the freshness of summer basil. Perfect for those warm summer nights when dining outside is a must!
To make the pesto, combine parsley, basil, garlic, pine nuts, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, pepper, and ricotta in a blender. Blend until smooth, drizzling in olive oil while the blender is running. Set aside.
Meanwhile, cook pasta in boiling water according to package instructions. Reserve 1/3 cup pasta water, then drain.
In a large bowl, combine pesto, pasta water, pasta, and Romano cheese. Fold together until evenly coated. Plate and enjoy!
