About Recipe

Pesto is one of my favorite things to make. It’s a classic, yet has so many possible variations. It originated in Italy and traditionally consists of basil, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, garlic and olive oil. All of these flavors are found in my recipe, but I twist it up with fresh mint and a little parsley. I add lemon juice and zest for a bright, acidic bite, and finish it off with some honey. The honey adds a sweetness that works really well with the other ingredients. The perfect combination? Rich pesto, crunchy bread, and soft, creamy mozzarella cheese. The flavors and textures of these three components blend together in a mouthwatering bite of bruschetta. And for an extra touch of indulgence, I reduce balsamic vinegar into a luscious syrup to spoon over the top.
