About Creamy pesto
Creamy pesto is a rich and flavorful sauce rooted in Italian cuisine, known for its vibrant green hue and velvety texture. Typically, it combines fresh basil, pine nuts, garlic, parmesan cheese, and olive oil, blended with cream to create its signature luscious consistency. Packed with heart-healthy fats from olive oil and nuts, creamy pesto offers a dose of vitamins A and K, as well as antioxidants found in basil. However, its calorie content can be substantial due to the addition of cream and cheese, making moderation key for those watching fat intake. Perfect over pasta, as a spread, or drizzle, creamy pesto is both indulgent and versatile, embodying the fusion of bold flavor and rich tradition.
