Using this recipe as my base recipe: http://christinecooks.blogspot.com/2012 ... pesto.html I made a bunch of pestos yesterday, we had thunderstorms and rain all day and I just got my new Italian canning jars from Amazon, so... Bastille Day Pestos ( photo / image / picture from CrisGzr's Garden ) The Lemon Balm pesto is so good! It will be perfect for grilling fish or fish tacos! The kale pesto is very easy and tasty, it is a perfect recipe for times when there is no fresh basil, it is also the brightest color! I don't usually add lemon but it was a nice addition. I never make the same recipe twice, until I hit on one that is so good, I can't change. I think this kale pesto qualifies, will wait and see on other two but they are definitely yummy. R says the 5 Basil Pesto is the best.
Thank you Song, it's yummy too. We mixed a tiny bit with sausage tortellini and it just made a simple meal crazy good! I made and freeze a lot of gnocchi, this will be good with that too! My doctor has me on a Very Low Calorie Diet and pestos have gone from a luxury to a must have or I'll go nuts ingredient LOL
