Editors Review

Did you know that a dash of pesto could transform the blandest of all dishes into a sizzling treat? And the good thing is that they are delightfully easy to make too. Sarah tosses in basil, pine nuts, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper to blend a sumptuous pesto sauce. Add them to your pasta, salads, finger foods or anything you like and enjoy a tongue-tickling dish.
