78.78 ml olive oil

directions

In large bowl, with wire whisk, combine Knorr ® Pesto sauce mix, Olive Oil and vinegar.
Cook pasta according to package directions.
Add pasta, broccoli, tomatoes and cheese; toss to coat.
Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately or chill until ready to serve.
I always prepare the sauce and mix in the grape tomatoes and mozzarella the day before. The day of the party I cook the broccoli and pasta then toss it all together.
