Very different for us, but we enjoyed it a lot. I'm not a huge fan of pesto, but I really enjoyed it in mashed potatoes. I added some fresh oregano and a little garlic as well. Delish! Made for ZWT4 for the Tastebud Tickling Travellers.

These are very delicious. It combines the wonderfulness of mashed potatoes with the great taste of pesto. We made this with chicken marsala for a wonderful italian meal. I followed all the ingredients per recipe.
