CREAMY PESTO SAUCE



Creamy Pesto Sauce image

Lovingly known as just 'green spaghetti' in our family, this pesto is unique because of the addition of cream cheese which gives it a great creamy texture (plus no pine nuts!).

CREAMY PESTO SALAD DRESSING



Creamy Pesto Salad Dressing image

I needed a salad dressing for an Italian dinner one night, and I wasn't in the mood for a vinaigrette. At our house, anything with pesto is a winner! :) This is a very thick salad dressing (especially if you use regular mayo), so you don't have to get your salad greens scrupulously dry - the excess water will loosen up the dressing.

Time 2m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 tablespoons prepared pesto sauce (Mom's Pesto, or store-bought)
2 tablespoons smooth Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons mayonnaise (lite works well)

Steps:

  • Whisk to combine. Dress salad! :).
