A very quick, light and tasty dish ideal for many occasions and the reason I included it in my collection of Quick summer pastas. Some time ago I had a busier day than usual and I already knew in the morning that once I left the house I would be out all day. So before leaving I thought to prepare lunch in advance and make a cold pasta; my children would find it when they came back from school and my husband would have it for dinner. In the fridge I had some zucchini and smoked salmon; I improvised a quick zucchini pesto with basil, cheese and pine nuts and used it to dress the pasta together with the smoked salmon: zucchini and salmon are really an ideal pairing and allow you to prepare a remarkable one-dish meal together with the pasta! For my cold pasta I chose fusilli, perfect to catch the dressing, and short pasta keeps its texture well and even when cold never becomes mushy. That's what I did, and at lunchtime my children called to compliment me: my cold pasta with zucchini pesto was delicious and fragrant, and it was still so good at dinner that even my husband devoured it in no time!
