FRESCO FRIDAYS: Basil Pesto Pasta with Grilled Shrimp

Summer is in full swing and while our garden veggies are starting to tucker out, our basil is loving these warmer temperatures so we’re using it in a fresh, homemade pesto in this week’s Fresco Friday recipe.

Whether you've got an herb garden of your own or are simply looking for something seasonal + simple to make for supper, this basil pesto pasta + grilled shrimp is sure to please.
