“This is a great homemade sauce to use as a pizza base or to smother your meatballs. See my Keto Cabbage and Mince Rolls where I used the full batch. The recipe yields a 500g / 17.6oz batch and the macros have been calculated that one person’s serving will be approximately 125g / 4.4oz. This is enough for 4 people. If you don’t need it all, it freezes well. Don’t forget the all-important dried oregano which adds an authentic Italian flavour.” – Monya
“Homemade basil pesto doesn’t last very long in our home due to its versatility, dynamite flavour and the ease of which it is made. Spend two extra minutes toasting the pine kernels and lightly frying the rawness out of the garlic and you will be good to go. Fresh pesto is superior to anything you will buy in the store – nothing beats it. It is fresher in flavour, and more vibrant in colour. This recipe makes a small tub (approximately 175g / 6oz), or 4 servings as calculated.” – Monya
