ABOUT Spinach Pea Pesto RECIPE

My version of the classic pesto with spinach and fresh peas. No cooking involved and takes all of ten minutes. This sauce will remain in the refrigerator easily for a week, maybe more. I always keep a jar of pesto in my fridge to use as a spread in sandwiches and wraps, as a dressing for salads and meats, or for pasta.
