Fresh homemade pesto can be used in so many different dishes! I love to use pesto as a spread on our chicken crust pizza 🍕 It is amazing with chicken and zucchini noodles 🥒🍗 You can add it to your breakfast muffins 🧁 You name it!
You can alter this recipe how you like it. For instance, I love garlic, so I used two cloves. You can also roast the pine nuts if you like that taste. Have fun with it! 😁
