Broccoli Spinach Pesto

1 Mins read

This Broccoli Spinach Pesto is a favorite in our house! Whenever the kids were picky about dinnertime veggies, I would make this meal. It’s packed with green veggies and still kid-approved!

The sauce is so quick to make, so it’s a great weeknight meal! We usually make at least a double batch and then freeze the sauce for another dinner. I like to put this pesto on my eggs, pizza, paninis, pretty much everything!

I also like to make festive dinners with this pesto. You can check out my Monster Pasta and Christmas Pasta dishes to see!
