			Are you sick and tired of the same old sandwich? 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	Try this: Lunch meat: I used tavern ham and genoa salami Cheese: Asiago (sliced thin) Condiment: Mayonaise WITH about 1/4 teaspoon of basil pesto smeared over the mayonnaise on ONE slice of the bread (Chicago Italian) mix in good. add: whatever veggies you like. Onion, lettuce, etc. The pesto Makes the sandwich. You will never be the same again.  |

			Does anyone make pesto with herbs other than basil? 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	I wonder what a mint pesto, or Thai basil would be like? This would make a great experiment don't you think? Hoe ly Crow, what about Greek Oregano??? Humm. Mint pesto on fruit? in a smoothie? topping for french vanilla ice cream? Mix in water, then freeze in ice cube trays to add to ice tea? Humm. Add to fudge sauce? Now we're talking... What about a basil base with italian herbs? ooooooo aahhaahhaa... Can't you just taste it in a pasta salad??? I'm making myself hungry

			The roomie is a big meat eater, so for lunch I fixed a roast (cooked all morning) and instead of potatoes (her fave) I used italian bread slices to make a open face roast sammich, toasted the bread and used the Basil Pesto sour cream dip on the bread instead of butter or whatever. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	It was so good she asked for 2 more... I think I found a winner. Served with steamed brocoli, etc. Ya, I still got it.
