Recently, I thawed out a baggie of basil pesto
from my Hurricane Harvest
to use in making Shrimp Caprese.
To use up the rest of the pesto,

Use a pasta that will catch the pesto sauce,
like this bow tie pasta (farfalle)
or a corkscrew pasta (rotini).

Basil pesto is delightful.
It's fresh, clean, and bright.

Hmm, I have some pesto in my freezer, need to locate and use. YUM.
ReplyDeleteLea, I still have about a gallon's worth of pesto packed in baggies in my freezer. I love that stuff! And I keep pots of basil growing in my window all through the winter.
ReplyDeleteOh, that looks delicious! I too have some homemade pesto in my freezer awaiting a recipe - this recipe!
