Fry the green onions
for 5 minutes, add the spinach and fry 3 minutes more. Add the lemon
juice, the pesto and the cream. In the mean time, sprinkle the tomato
pieces with pepper and salt and grill for 10 minutes. Boil the pasta
for a few minutes (al dente). Put in a bowl, spoon the pesto sauce over
it, top with cheese and grilled tomatoes.
Pesto is delicious
just on a slice of bread, but you can also use it in many recipes. The
Worldcook website has a page on recipes
with pesto to inspire you.

Cook the pasta together
with the beans for 7 minutes (if you use fresh pasta, cook the beans
separately because fresh pasta needs only 2 minutes or so). Drain and
stir in the anchovies paste mixture, the mozzarella, the olives and
basil. Decorate with some basil leaves.
