βI made this recipe for my husband and I. It is the perfect amount of sauce for half a pound of spaghetti, which feeds two people nicely. I substituted heavy cream for the milk because I had some on hand that needed to be used up and it still turned out great. β β a cook, 5.0β
βMade this recipe tonight and will be making it again! I didnβt have any spinach and I needed to add some additional milk and more pesto (personal preference) but very delicious! Everyone in the family approved!β β a cook, 5.0β
