Spring Pesto Lamb Pasta

American Lamb Board.

Spring has officially arrived. It’s a favorite time of year.

Here in Colorado we have a few more weeks before we have consistent warm days. However, that doesn’t mean we can’t get into the spring spirit. Fresh vegetables are starting to make their appearance and we can’t think of a better date to accompany these crispy greens than ground lamb.

We've got a catalog of spring-worthy lamb-centered recipes: Greek Grilled American Lamb Chops, Ground Lamb and Vegetable Frittata, American Lamb Burger & Frites, and now, this Spring Pesto Lamb Pasta.

A simple, flavorful dish that uses ground American lamb, handful of vegetables, pasta, and copious amounts of pesto.
