Meals from scratch really taste better all the time..for dinner on a lazy sunday, hubby thought of whipping up spaghetti for the kids. This got me into craving for pesto pasta too, well lucky for us we have homemade pesto stored in the freezer. So he cooked the pasta and divided it into two parts and did the sauce for the kids which is tomato based with carrot and hotdogs while moi did the pesto sauce.
For the pesto sauce, fresh basil is always available at the baguio city market, ours was made with olive oil, garlic, salt n pepper and blended till smooth. Place in a jar and store in the freezer for longer life. It is ideal for pasta sauces and sandwich spreads.
I came up with the spicy pesto-sardine sauce when i was pregnant with Troy and was always craving for new tastes. It has since been a favorite recipe especially for my hubby who loves spicy foods. A can of spicy fried sardines sauteed with garlic and the pesto sauce completes this oh-so yummy, elegant-looking-but-affordable creation..bursting with flavor too!
