Pesto, my new crush…<\/p>\n
I am speechless and at the same time speech full while talking about pesto. My latest favorite, my crush, my love, my everything. I’m totally over it, my hubby is glad it’s a sauce and not a Man, lol \ud83d\ude1b Well, I’ve tried pizzas spread with pesto sauce a few times but it was two days ago I actually explored pesto to the fullest. I came home with a jar of pesto, at first opened the lid and smelled it. I couldn’t stop inhaling, it was full of flavor and aromatic and I fell head over heels for it instantly. I knew it, that jar wouldn’t be enough for me.<\/p>\n
I’m glad that I’ve basil growing really good in my garden. Now, I know what to make with it after I harvest them. I know the recipe for making it, but haven’t tried it yet. I’ve no idea why did I wait this long, better late than never!<\/p>\n
So, what’s the first thing I did with pesto? I had store bought Naan as well, so I didn’t waste a minute looking for new recipes. I smeared the naan with pesto, lots and lots of pesto and lotsss, placed cooked scallops over it and baked it for 5 minutes. This was my last night’s dinner. As I took the baked naan out of the oven, I stood still enjoying the aroma and the refreshing flavor of pesto. It was hot and I couldn’t resist. I chewed a slice of naan, closed my eyes and what? Mmmm, Mmmmm, Mmmm, a gazillion times!…and annoyed my hubby to the core \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
What is pesto?<\/p>\n
Pesto is a sauce made of of fresh basil, pine nuts, olive oil, garlic and parmesan cheese. Of course, it’s a very healthy sauce and is popular in Italian cuisine. Pesto sauce can be added to pizzas, pastas, chicken or just spread it over bread, toast it and enjoyy….it’s that good!!!<\/p>\n
For tonight’s dinner, I am making beef pesto stir fry. I told ya, I am all over it \ud83d\ude42 Also, I’ll soon make pesto from scratch and will share the recipe with you all. How can I not share with you all lovely people \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
