Cooking Steps
Boil the kettle. Pour boiling water into a saucepan over high heat with a pinch of salt. Cook orecchiette in boiling water until ‘al dente’, 8 minutes. Drain and return to pan. Drizzle with a little olive oil to prevent sticking.
Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high in a large frying pan. Cook diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until just golden, 4-6 minutes. Halve snacking tomatoes. Roughly chop baby spinach leaves. Drain sweetcorn.
To the pasta, add bacon, tomatoes, spinach, corn, creamy pesto dressing and basil pesto. Toss to combine. Season to taste. Divide pasta salad between containers. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
