The vegetables husband Ron grows in his new veggie garden include an old favorite: Basil, basil, basil everywhere! He grows it in large pots in a hidden corner of the garden that gets lots of sun. Easily and inexpensively grown from seed, basil is a staple in many of our favorite recipes - especially Ron’s step-by-step pesto-making lessons headed Pesto Italiano.
Today, there’s a new kid on the block! Truly delicious, this easy salad dressing is just in time for warm-weather salad season.
Pesto-Mayo Salad Dressing:
3 tbsp. (45 mL) mayonnaise
2 tsp. (10 mL) Dijon-style mustard
4 tsp. (20 mL) apple cider vinegar
1/4 tsp. (1.25 mL) granulated sugar
2 tbsp. (30 mL) basil pesto
Salt and pepper, to taste
Shake together in small, lidded jar (Being the rebellious type, I stirred - didn’t shake - this dressing in an unlidded jar). Pour as needed over mixed greens for four. Done!
