Pesto alla Genovese Bundles

A dish that will amaze your guests with its delicious flavor... This is a traditional Ligurian recipe. Basil pesto, usually served with trenette or linguine... But in this version, it's baked in the oven with green beans and potatoes, just like the original recipe. After 40 minutes of baking, you'll discover a great alternative to the classic version.
