So I have this thing for pesto…it’s a huge thing actually. The flavor is just so satisfying to me! I ended up making a sandwich for lunch yesterday and it was kind of a kitchen sink project. I had some veggie burger patties in the freezer, some lettuce, some avocado…and then I realized I needed some kind of sauce to put on it so it’d have a little flavor and not be too dry. Typically when I have this problem I just use hummus, but I spotted a jar of pesto in my fridge and thought YES. So after I ate that for lunch, of course my brain was like yeah…we’re gonna need infinitely more pesto ASAP. Hence this dinner was born!
I’ve made this dish several different ways depending on what I have in my fridge that I can throw into it. There have been times where I really wanted to make this but the only veggie I had on hand was frozen green beans and I used those…it was still good! If there’s a will, there’s a way…and there’s always a will for pesto.
