Recipe Summary Pesto With Arugula
This pesto is unique due to the arugula, which gives it a peppery bite. I also like the lack of cheese, but add it if you must. Use as a spread or on pasta. My favorite is on baguette slices or on whole wheat crackers. It's addictive!Ingredients | Healthy Pasta Sauce Recipes Olive Oil
