Fava Bean Pesto

Great for crostini, as a pasta sauce, or—by adding potatoes and onions—it can become a delicious creamy soup, or a tasty filling for fresh pasta or savory pies.
Cooking is art and creativity. For a kitchen focused on reducing waste, you can freeze this pesto and always have it on hand for busy times.
Just thaw it and add it to other ingredients, or simply spread it on a crostini with a drizzle of olive oil.
