Pesto and Burrata Pasta
This Pesto and Burrata Pasta is a simple yet luxurious dish that bursts with fresh flavor. The pesto is made from scratch with basil, toasted pine nuts, garlic, olive oil, and Parmesan, delivering a vibrant and herby punch. It’s tossed with your favorite pasta and crowned with creamy burrata, creating the ultimate comfort bowl. For a nut-free version, skip the pine nuts and amp up the garlic and cheese. Quick, customizable, and irresistibly good.
