We don't garden like we used too, the Farmer's market offers such a wonderful variety at great prices; however, we still plant a single cherrry tomato, a grape tomato plant, a vine tomato plant , and a heirloom tomato plant plus 2 basil plants every year. Read more The recipe came together because we were debating between a Marguerite pizza and a pesto pasta. This turned out to be a great blend of both and now is one of our favorites. This is the simplest and freshest pasta you can make. See less
