I went on a whole pesto freezing kick due to the abundance of fresh basil in my garden. I couldn’t bear to waste it! I made jars and jars of pesto to freeze for a rainy day and even froze some individual portions for sauce in a pinch. Here’s how to freeze pesto. What You’ll…

Sun-dried Tomato Pesto
This pesto is to die for. I seriously cannot get enough of it! I love sun-dried tomatoes in pretty much everything but wow does this pack a flavor punch. I ate a grilled cheese with just this and cheddar on sourdough and it blew my mind. What’s so special about this recipe is that it uses…
Homemade Pesto
You forget how great homemade pesto is. It tastes like summer in a jar. It’s so quick and easy too! This is hands down the absolute best pesto sauce. I tend to make it in bulk at the end of summer/early fall when I have insane amount of basil in the garden. Pesto freezes really…

Mustard Sauce
The French know what’t they’re doing when it comes to sauces! This very French mustard sauce is a go-to of mine for any and every pork dish. I often deglaze a pan with it when making pork chops – it’s even more delicious with the brown bits from searing pork! I whipped this up to…
