15-Year-Old Pesto Sauce

I first tried pesto in a restaurant about 15 years ago and asked the chef what was in it. I love keeping my own jar of this on hand as it yields enough for a pound of pasta and is wonderful drizzled over tomatoes, boiled potatoes, or Italian bread.

Spinach Basil Pesto

This spinach pesto sauce is perfect for freezing in an ice cube tray. I just pop out a couple of cubes from the freezer and add them to a pasta dish for a quick and easy meal. The Parmesan cheese can be omitted and added after thawing.

Garlic Scape Pesto

This is a wonderful garlic scape pesto made with the curled flowers from the top of a garlic plant that are abundant in spring. This pesto is delicious mixed with pasta, or spread on crackers. It also tastes great mixed with mayo for sandwiches, and makes a great substitute for garlic, onion, or scallions!

Basil Cream Sauce

I came up with this creamy basil sauce recipe when I couldn't find one online. I put it on everything! It can be reheated in the microwave without separating. I love the light green color โ€” it displays beautifully over tri-color or regular pasta, salmon, and grilled chicken.

Basil Pesto

Basil pesto is extremely versatile. It enhances the flavor of dishes like steak, chicken, fish, vegetables, and pasta. After combining the ingredients and forming into a tube shape, simply slice whatever size portion you need and freeze the rest. Easy-breezy to prepare and bursting with flavor!

Pesto Genovese (Authentic Italian Basil Pesto)

An authentic Genoese pesto. It's straight from Italy and you won't find a better recipe! This calls for a spoonful of pecorino cheese, but you could also use all Parmesan in a pinch. To store in fridge for up to 1 month: place pesto in a jar, cover with olive oil, and top with a lid.

Basil Pecan Pesto

I developed this basil pecan pesto recipe over a summer of trial and error and prefer it to all other pesto recipes! I like the taste of pecans over pine nuts, which are often used in pesto recipes.

Cashew Basil Pesto

For this cashew basil pesto, the traditional pine nuts are replaced by cashews, which provide a similar mild flavor and creamy texture. The splash of lemon juice adds brightness. For the best result, use a good quality olive oil.
