You may recall the basil pesto that I made recently but I had not shared with you what else I did with that pesto. Yes, you can freeze some and use some as a spread but you can also use it in a vinaigrette.
I grabbed a few teaspoons, placed then into a mini-processor, added a few tablespoons of red wine vinegar and pulsed it until it was well emulsified. Smart eh? You can then add more vinegar, oil and mustard until it is the consistency and flavor you desire.
What else could you use pesto to make?

Great dressing! I am seriously into salad season now and could use a new addition to my repertoire. Looks yummy.
Great idea! I like pesto as a spread in sandwiches, and of course on pizzas and pastas too. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it...
Great idea! Even more uses for pesto :). I love it in sandwiches and on garlic bread.

With all the greens from the CSA and my basil pot suddenly exploding, this vinaigrette is a great way to use both ingredients.
That is REALLY smart. You could also use this vinaigrette to top lamb chops.
