What could be…

Any Greens Pesto
Any Greens Pesto Yes, you can make fresh pesto in January! Maybe not the super traditional Genovese version, but you can make a bright and fresh “any greens” pesto that will be delicious with pasta, as a sauce for fish or chicken or tossed with roasted veggies. We just came back from a couple weeks…
