👨‍🍳 Instructions

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil.

Add ziti pasta, and cook until al dente, about 8 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a saucepan over medium-low heat, mix together the pesto and basil tomato sauce.

Bring to a simmer, and season with salt to taste. (You can also heat the sauce in a covered microwave-safe bowl: cook on high for one minute.) Place pasta in a large serving bowl.

Toss with pesto-tomato sauce.

Top with grated Parmesan cheese.
