If you have perused this blog at all, you are probably already well aware that I have a deep love for all things pesto.
Although I’ve experimented with tons of ingredients in the past – and with great success – I feel this one is the most unique. Albeit a bit unexpected, all of the flavors blended together beautifully to give the pesto a nommy Mediterranean flair.
And you know how I feel about Mediterranean food. 🙂
As with all pesto, it’s not only delicious, but also a snap to make AND incredibly nutritious!
