    Garlic Pesto Spread, This is a solid version of the Garlic Pesto Sauce for easier handling, storing, spreading, carrying and giving Being a busy mom, I’ve made it saltier so it stores better, uses less per serving and thus lasts longer It also freezes very well I’ve forgotten a bottle in the freezer for over a year and it still tastes the same, with the same garlicky pungency, and has no freezer smell at all When stored, the top layer will get a darker green which is perfectly alright Besides spreading on bread, crackers, biscuits, bagels–it is also good for pasta, veggie dips, putting on fish and chicken, and is a brilliant touch up on many cream soups, adding to them a sophisticated flavor (I have tried: tomato based vegetable soup, turmeric vegetable soup, pumpkin soup, cream of corn–please have fun experimenting!), MMMM! Used up a lot of my basil in the garden so i didn’t have to freeze or dry it all! LOVED it! the other half loved it as well adds it to casseroles and meals here and there thanks! the toasted pine nuts smell DIVINE!! 🙂
