Pesto Balls are a flavorful bite-sized appetizer inspired by Italian cuisine, often enjoyed as a snack or party dish. Made with fresh basil pesto, Parmesan or mozzarella cheese, almond or pine nut flour, and sometimes breadcrumbs or crushed nuts, they offer a delightful combination of herbal and cheesy richness wrapped in a tender or lightly crispy texture. These savory treats highlight the heart-healthy fats from olive oil and nuts, along with antioxidant-rich basil and protein from the cheese. While Pesto Balls can be nutrient-dense, their calorie and sodium content tends to be higher due to the use of cheese and oil, so portion control is key. Perfect for dipping or serving alongside fresh vegetables, they bring a vibrant taste of Italy to any plate.
