I love pesto, but it usually contains parmesan cheese, not exactly a detox ingredient…
But the other day it came to my mind that basil & parmesan pesto is not the only option!
Dried tomato pesto is a delicious alternative, and you can make it DETOX style!
OMG! Can you believe how many detox ingredients does the Italian cuisine have? —Claudia | Gourmet Project
