"Not sure where this came from originally but I love it! I used low-fat cottage cheese and sour cream. The pesto sauce would also be great as a sauce for chicken. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did :-)"

  1. i thought i reviewed this ages ago, so sorry. this was a nice creamy dish. i served it with fresh grown cherry tomatoes, halved, and extra grated parmesan cheese.very quick and easy too. -- i forgot to add that i used home grown basil, which to me makes such a difference. —

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I have a degree in archaeology from a small Ohio college and I work for the Ohio History Connection. My passions are art, music, books, food, history, and cats/animal welfare. I also love photography. I have a 1,000 (plus) piece collection of vintage flower pins from the 1960's, hence the username ha. I also have small collections of vintage butterfly pins, vintage tablecloths, and vintage glass Christmas ornaments. (Can you tell I love vintage?) I took a trip to the Netherlands in March 2006 and fell in love! I doubt it will happen but if I ever have the opportunity I would love to live there.
