 We developed this recipe for a ladies event a few years back and people went absolutely crazy over it. After the event was over we both went home with leftover pea pesto and texted each other for the next week comparing ways we used it. There were definitely a couple of pasta and prosciutto nights, I’m pretty sure we both spread it on roasted cauliflower, and a few eggs and avocado toasts were had. We love the versatility!
