ELIZABETH'S PESTO WITH A SOUTHERN TWIST
A delicious pesto with traditional ingredients. This has been booted up with some southern fried kick. You can spray ice cube trays with cooking spray and spoon in pesto, freeze until hard, and store in freezer in a resealable plastic bag.

PESTO WITH A TWIST
After picking my first fresh wild garlic, I had to find a way to use masses of wild garlic. This recipe is super quick and the color and taste will never make you want to use store-bought pesto again! Freezing it works nicely as well!
