From Garden to Mason Jar

Recipe creator: Jennifer Walsh


Pesto is definitely one of my favourite sauces... or should I say condiment? It's both really.

Rich, fresh and bursting with flavour, it's one of those kitchen staples I always love having on hand,

and especially on my toast with eggs.

It's incredibly versatile. Toss it through freshly cooked pasta, spread it on a sandwich, serve it alongside grilled meats, or add it to a charcuterie board as a delicious dip.

My favourite way to enjoy it, though, is the simplest of all... generously spread over thick slices of toasted sourdough, topped with perfectly cooked eggs. Simple, fresh and absolutely delicious.

Making pesto from herbs you've grown yourself makes it even more special. There's something incredibly satisfying about wandering out to the garden, picking a handful of fresh basil, and turning it into something so vibrant and full of flavour in just a few minutes.

Once you've made homemade pesto, it's hard to go back.

From garden to mason jar... presto, pesto! 🌿💚

There is something incredibly rewarding about walking into the garden, picking a handful of fresh herbs, and turning them into something your family can enjoy. This Herb Garden Pesto is proof that a few simple, wholesome ingredients can create something truly special.

I hope this recipe inspires you to grow a few herbs of your own, or at the very least, to give homemade pesto a try. Once you've tasted it fresh, it's difficult to go back to store bought.
