I had overbought basil last week for the banh mi, so to use it up, I very creatively made pesto. Actually, this whole salad has a bit of the “kitchen sink” quality to it, as my main objective was to clear the fridge because – hallelujah – the Green City Market opens tomorrow. It might not quite yet be time for “hallelujah”, but I am looking forward to asparagus, lettuce, and garlic scapes, if nothing else.
This salad was probably one of my favorite ones so far – regardless if it was to get rid of stock.
Agreed. This was good… Though I’m not sure what chicken pesto salad has to do with Cinco de Mayo… maybe Ellen is slipping.
