Mom is hijacking my blog. She still has pesto on the brain. Here are 13 things you can do with Basil Pesto:
- Use it as a Sauce on Pasta (you may need to add a little of the pasta water)
- Add to mayonnaise in a chicken salad (you can add cherry tomatoes too)
- Mix it in with Mashed Potatoes
- Add to tomato sauce for a flavor kick
- Mix with mayo and dijon mustard as a spread for a roast beast sandwich
- Add to a cauliflower vegie soup for a flavor punch
- As a bruschetta topping
- Add to tomato soup to make it less boring
- Spread on a tortilla, then topped with vegies and feta cheese and cooked as a thin, quick, pizza
- Mixed with mayo and egg yolks for a stuffed egg filling
- Use some pesto on your next baked potato
- Spread it on some grilled chicken
- Put it on grilled swordfish

It's green, it has rabbit food in it...yoo'd throw it in da garbage? Yeah, mom makes stuff dat we think is pretty gaggy too. Mom may try making some wif pistachio nuts, thanks fur da tip.
Mom says it looks good and dats a good idea about ice cube pestos. I would chew through the bag and bat them off the counter and all over the house. Is dat what you would do Millie?
our mommy loves loves loves pesto!!
Mommy has to go eat now, you made her hungry. I'm with you Millie - to the litterbox with that stuff!
My Mommie likes pesto too. Not me. I do not like anything green.
Please send all basil to Fiona Bun!
my humamn loves pesto.She eats it almost everyday with pasta because I get all the steak. ha ha. She has made pesto potatoes before and they are actually very nice wrapped up in foil and barbequed!
Looks to green for my tummy. I would accidentally knock it over and look real innocent. Have a wonderful Friday.

Bleh. Just bleh.
Mom's been eatin' her basil with tomatoes and onions as bruschetta topping again ... She says that she prefers it freshly off the plant, so it wouldn't make it to the freezer. The lemons, however, have been squeezed and are chillin' in ice cube trays in the freezer as I type. Those pesto cubes sure are a pretty color. Is your momma gonna make 'nip cubes?
