If you know me you know that I absolutely love making gnocchi. Both the vegan (eggless) and the normal version (we also added the eggless option below). Gnocchi are definitely one of the easiest types of pasta to make and you can even make them without any specific tools. This Gnocchi al Pesto recipe is one of my favourite ones to make as I love Pesto alla Genovese and the gnocchis really absorb it well.

Reading up on Jamaican broad leaf Thyme (a.k.a. Poor Man’s pork) I discovered that it is actually commonly used as a medicinal plant to treat conditions like cold, asthma, constipation, headache, cough, fever and skin diseases. It has also been found to be effective against respiratory, cardiovascular, oral, skin, digestive and urinary diseases. So this pesto is pretty much a super food!

There are not many things in this world that are better than a nice plate of spaghetti with homemade pesto, but did you know that the classical basil pesto is only one of many pesto types out there? Below you will find some of my favorite pesto recipes, they are not only super easy to make but also extremely versatile. You can use them for your pasta, on meat/ fish dishes, to make lasagne, to make bruschette or even as a pizza base.

Who doesn’t love a good pasta with pesto sauce? Pesto is so easy to make at home that it is an excellent quick lunch option. Since we also love roasted tomatoes we decided to combine these two dishes together and were so happy with the outcome! The orecchiette al pesto are definitely elevated with the extra tomatoes and the crunchy garlic.

A different way of making your typical pasta al pesto! More veggies and more taste in a 20 min recipe
