Pesto Toscano made with fresh kale, garlic, and olive oil instead of traditional basil. A robust Tuscan pesto with just 4 ingredients, no nuts, and no cheese required.
In my opinion, this is the most decadent, rich and scrumptious pasta dish and one of my all-time favorites (I originally got this recipe from a Bon Appetit magazine many, many years ago). Very easy to prepare and always a hit.
Incredibly rich, red wine flavor infused into the rice perfectly with the tomato and cheese. Typically from Northern Italy, choose a Pinot Noir or any other good Italian drinking wine.
