  Very simple, but yummy and light. The pesto really lifts the dish.

  I thought this was delicious! I added leeks instead of broccoli but you can use any green veg. I also put in 3 tablespoons of pesto

  My kids love this recipe - really healthy and easy to make. I change the vegetables depending on what I fancy and what is available - asparagus goes well, as do mange tout, sugar snap peas and baby corn. Definitely five stars.

  My 10 month old baby found this to be too bland for him.

  fresh but needs more flavour, I think a good quality chicken stock would help and some mixed herbs.

  YUM! I made this last night and loved it. I'd really stress not to use a cheap stock though as it can make the broth quite salty if you've added a lot of pesto. Lovely for leftovers too

  Absolutely scrummy, I only had red pesto, but it was gorgeous. Thought the kids might turn their noses up but they loved it too!

  I made this as a light alternative to Sunday lunch for my family and they loved it, quicker, easier and less dishes - whats not to love! I did omit the new potatoes and served it with a buttery mash instead, a real hit

  This was very simple to do and was pretty tasty. I wasn't totally sold on the broccoli though - the flavour seemed to clash a little with the pesto. If I did it again, I'd use green beans instead.

  Made this last week and have had a 'spring' in my step since! Subtle nuanced flavours push this dish to the edge and back again. Wonderfully tasty.
