CILANTRO JALAPENO PESTO WITH LIME



Cilantro Jalapeno Pesto with Lime image

This is a spicy alternative to classic basil pesto. You can control the spiciness by using less jalapeno and by removing the seeds and white membrane of the pepper before adding it to the pesto. If you like the spice, just throw it all in!
