Pesto With Flank Steaks

Here's a great cooking idea for that extra pesto you may have. Take 1/3 cup of pesto, add 1 Tbsp lemon juice, 2 tsp grated lemon peel and 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper and combine it. Serve it with grilled steaks or fajita's.

This is also great for a spread on sandwiches and burgers. Another way to use it is as a pizza sauce. Pesto also goes great with fish. We love to cook talipia. Make extra pesto if you need it. Spoon the pesto on 6 pieces of talipia and put a tomato slice on top along with mozzarella cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for about 20-30 minutes, or until the fish is done. There you have it, simple and easy for cooking meals. There's so many ways to use pesto and so many different ways to make pesto that you can't go wrong.
