THE EASIEST AND MOST DELICIOUS CLASSIC PESTO

Pesto is just so delicious! It goes with everything. Pizza, pasta, salads, meats and many other dishes. It really goes well with everything. The great thing about pesto is that it is made so quickly and so easily that you will never want to use anything else. Add all the ingredients to a food processor for a few seconds and that’s it. There is not much more to say about this recipe other than, try it. You will not regret adding it to your weekly menus.

At my house it was not very common to eat pesto. With nothing, we never had a lot of pasta either. So, every time I went out to eat and saw that ingredient on a menu item, I had to order it. Once I moved on my own, I wanted to put pesto on everything. Once I got used to it, I did relax a bit. But at the beginning I even wanted to have something for breakfast that I could combine with this ingredient.

Here are a couple of pesto recipes I think you might like

My favorite ways of eating pesto:

Pizza: Combinations of pizza toppings such as pesto, mozzarella and tomato are a classic that never goes out of style and we all like it. To that combination you can add chicken for example. The most important thing is not to be stingy with toppings.

Pasta: Uff with any type of pasta. You can make it creamier or simply cover the pasta with the pesto. Amazing

Sandwiches: This might be my favorite way to combine this ingredient. Sandwiches with chicken, cheese and pesto. Meats, hams, different types of ingredients in different types of bread. It already depends on your creativity or the time you spend searching on pinterest.

Equipment:

Food processor: To make the entire recipe

Measures: Cup measures.

Silicone spatula: To transfer the pesto to the container.

Cheese grater: For the freshly grated parmesan cheese.
