Presto, a Yellow Pesto!
with Colive Oil & Conza Sourdough Crunch Breadcrumbs
On our most recent trip to Sicily, we discovered a new yellow pesto! Made from just lemon peel, almonds, parmesan, olive oil, and sea salt, this new pesto is going to get the people going!
We partnered with our friends at Colive Olive Oil to make sure our yellow pesto turned out as flavorful as pastabale! Recipe and link to our collaboration video below!
