So many types of pesto, so little time…

Pesto Crustini on Nasturtiums
- add to sauces and soups
- blend with yogurt for salad dressing
- stuff salmon or other fish
- add dollop to rice for infusion
- top crustinis or crackers for party snacks
- spread on pizza base, or blend with tomato sauce
- garnish a steak salad
- create your own dip with sour cream or cream cheese
Recipe: Chicken Salad Sandwich
- 2 cups of chicken
3 tbs of cream cheese
2 tbs of sour cream and 1 1/2 tbs of pesto
blend by hand until creamy
add favorite sandwich garnishes…such as micro celery greens and tomatoes
For a “Spring Chicken Salad Sandwich” consider a few of our favorite garnishes of micro mustard, violets, rose petals, wild crafted garlic mustard, shiso and other greens.
Pesto, essentially “paste”, is also made from our raspberry crops and is used as a different sort of pesto. Makes great thumbprint cookies, spreads, cake layers, hot tea, etc.
