Tips & Warnings

• Makes 8-10 servings
• I tend to use the whole container of pesto. This can be any kind of pesto, tomato, basil...etc.
• This is also a good meal with your favorite glass of wine. I like a red wine with mine, merlo tastes great!!

on 6/10/2008 The pesto container is about 3oz's I believe, the size I get is about the same radius as a hockey puck.
