JALAPENO PESTO PASTA

Jalapeno Pesto Pasta image

I got the jalapeno sauce recipe from Aprovecho: A Mexican-American Border Cookbook. The sauce freezes nicely. The pasta mix-ins are just what I had on hand the first time I made it; it works well and helps to cut the heat if your sauce is too spicy.

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!
