Description

I love preparing this dish of spaghetti with homemade basil pesto! It's a simple and quick recipe, perfect for a sunny lunch or a relaxed dinner. The pesto, prepared with fresh basil, Parmesan, garlic and pine nuts, offers an explosion of Mediterranean flavors. The little touch of candied dried tomatoes brings a subtle sweetness that marries wonderfully with the basil. In addition, it's a great way to use fresh basil from the garden in the summer. A real treat for the taste buds, ready in no time!
