Cook pasta to al dente. Drain and rinse.
In a bowl, mix pasta with pesto.
Heat BBQ on high. It's important to get the grill really hot prior to grilling fruit like peaches to prevent overcooking and making them mushy.
Drizzle olive oil over veggies and peaches, and lightly season with salt and pepper.
Grill peaches and veggies until lightly charred on the outside and heated through. This will only take 3-7 minutes.
On a platter, layer pasta with grilled veggies and peaches, and garnish with extra parmesan, pistachios, pine nuts, chili flakes or chopped basil and lemons.
