Roasted Red Pepper Pesto – I give five forks

July 15, 2019 By Jittery Cook Leave a Comment

Roasted Red Pepper Pesto served on roasted zoodles in small black bowls with small black forks and colourful napkins on a white background.

This Roasted Red Pepper Pesto clamours for your attention. The condiment shakes up your taste buds, whether you serve it as sauce, dressing or dip. Did I dream up this recipe? No, I discovered it in Mareya Ibrahim‘s Eat like You Give a Fork, and I give it five (out of five) forks.
