TRADITIONAL ITALIAN RECIPE: What's the best time of the year for vegetables? Well, let me be clear... ALL THE TIMES!!!
Meat is cancerogenic! It means it causes cancer! So... veggies is the answer! Unless you drink and smoke like an idiot... then... feel free to do whatever you want... the Darwin Awards will be at your doorstep soon anyway!
Regular Pesto is not quite versatile. It has a strong flavour, so when you wanna twist it you really have to change the main ingredient.
Italian pesto is one of the most “express” sauces in the world. It only takes two minutes to make it, and in a blink you have a quick, refreshing and colorful pasta sauce.
This rocket pesto sauce almost as much as the traditional basil pesto recipe take seconds to make. The method is pretty much the same, although rocket is used in place of basil.
