Pesto is and always has been a staple food in my diet. I just love it! On bread, as a dip, over pasta, on pizza, you name it! This is my grandmother’s recipe for pesto and I hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Simple ‘Meaty’ Vegan Spaghetti Sauce
Having this spaghetti sauce on-hand to thaw out and serve over pasta can make busy weeknight meals a breeze (and super healthy).
