This Cilantro Mint Pesto has refreshing qualities with its cilantro flavors and the hint of mint. It’ss a perfect summer spread.
I am a huge fan of cilantro mint chutney so I thought I’d give it a try in pesto form. the herbs work perfectly together, so naturally the pesto turned out delicous. You can use it however you would use a traditional pesto and Ihave found that it is supurb in a salad!
