Hey so I was thinking about making some ravioli and I thought it might be nice to make it with a pesto filling as everyone in my family loves pesto. Anyone got a good recipe for a pesto filling? Should I mix with cheese or some meat or something to make it more substantial?

Also, is there anything you like to add to pesto that adds to the flavor? I usually just use the typical stuff, basil, pine nuts, Parmesan, olive oil, I'd love to see if I could make it a bit more interesting.

What can I add to creamy pesto spaghetti besides chicken?

I love it and I have everything I need but the chicken and don't know what else would go good with it..

What can I add to creamy pesto spaghetti besides chicken?

I'm a pretty crap cook but I love this dish:
Cream
Pesto
Spaghetti
Chicken

I got everything but the chicken and I want to make it but I want something to replace the chicken, what goes with pesto and cream?

So I was making pesto chicken wrapped in prosciutto.

Whip up some tasty fucking pesto. Pour it all into a bowl. Start dipping in raw chicken... Realize I contaminated the whole batch. Wasn't too big but I definitely wanted to use it again.

It's been in the fridge since. Can I dip some fish in it and cook that? Am I safe to use it for a few days in any application that involves cooking? Or should I pitch it to be safe?

So, after making pesto... what do I do? do I keep it on the fridge or what? how long does it takes until is not good anymore?
