Broccoli Walnut Pesto Pasta

Pasta! tell me which kid doesn't like. My kids are no exception. Pasta is the dish in which I can sneak in vegetables that they don't like it. I wanted to try the less creamy version of broccoli pasta. So I have decided to do broccoli walnut pesto pasta. Kids enjoyed it. I loved the taste of it. Finally I found one dish in which I can tolerate broccoli. Yahoo! now I can say I eat all vegetables...
