Cilantro Jalapeno Pesto with Lime

This is a spicy alternative to classic basil pesto. You can control the spiciness by using less jalapeno and by removing the seeds and white membrane of the pepper before adding it to the pesto. If you like the spice, just throw it all in!

Chive Pesto

This chive pesto is a creamy herb paste or sauce perfect for all seasons! Whether you serve it with a main dish or a side dish, your guests (and you) will love it. I made this on a whim when I ran out of basil. I prefer it to traditional pesto. It's perfect for short pasta shapes. The amount it serves is up to how much you use for your meal.

This is one of the most interesting and delicious pesto alternatives that you will ever taste. The recipe is super simple and the hardest part might be finding the garlic scapes themselves. Use as you would traditional pesto.

Lighter Basil Pesto

Basil pesto is one of my favorite foods, especially in the summer. Unfortunately pesto is very high in fat and calories, so I have been working to create a lower fat and low calorie pesto version. This pesto is creamy and delicious without the guilt! This recipe is also great with any type of stock or nuts that you have at home.

Arugula Pesto

Arugula makes a great pesto. It's beautiful, fragrant, peppery, and bright. I blend it with almonds and garlic for a combo that was just amazing on a grilled steak. Subtle it's not, but that's okay sometimes.

Creamy Pesto Sauce

Lovingly known as just 'green spaghetti' in our family, this pesto is unique because of the addition of cream cheese which gives it a great creamy texture (plus no pine nuts!).

Pesto alla Siciliana

This is the recipe for the authentic pesto from Sicily. It combines a traditional pesto with Sicilian delights: ricotta cheese and tomatoes. It has a light and refreshing flavor. Enjoy it with tubular pasta so the pesto finds its way inside the tubes for a burst of Sicilian flavor with every bite! Seeding the tomatoes first allows the mixture to be thicker so it sticks better to the pasta.
