Pesto alla Genovese is a traditional Italian sauce, usually mixed with pasta, drizzled over freshly baked pizza, or spread on sandwich bread. The classic basil pesto recipe is made by pounding fresh basil with copious amounts of garlic, salt, roasted pine nuts, earthy olive oil, and Parmesan cheese. The brand continues by noting that pre-made, jarred sauces can withstand higher heat. If using , stir macaroni and cheese just before serving and allow to retain heat. Or use bottled pesto and cook it at the same time as the mac and cheese.
If you’ve ever thought mac and cheese was too heavy, this might be a great option for you. It brings fresh spiciness.
