Penne in Fresh Basil and Walnut Pesto

I had written about the Fresh Pesto with Basil and Walnuts a couple of days ago. Here is one way you can use this sauce with a pasta. I used Penne for only one reason; it was the pasta I had on hand. 🙂

What I like best about this recipe is that, if you have the sauce ready, it gets done in 15-20 minutes. If you need to make the Pesto Sauce, the you probably need about 25-30 minutes.
