Рецепт Roasted Red Pepper Pesto

by Nicole Sherman

The first time I had

pesto was in the Pennsylvania Amish country. I had never even heard of pesto before.

The day I tired pesto I was in love. It always amazes me I come across

something I have never had in my entire live then suddenly I am in love and it

changes everything for me.

I love pesto (humm…

I think I might have said that lol) but I had never had roasted red pepper

pesto. When I found this recipe I decided I had to give it a try. This recipe

is very good! It’s full of flavor and just a little goes a long way. Which means

you will have plenty for future meals. I love that because that means a simple

dinner in the future.
