This recipe uses a spread of prepared homemade pesto, which freezes well for use in a pasta, bake and more! You can even add a teaspoon of the pesto to a teaspoon of olive oil and use as a salad dressing over peppery rocket leaves for a tasty homemade dressing.

No time to make the pesto? Just sub for store bought instead!
