Slagjana –
we enjoyed eating this with the pasta
JW –
The hint of chilli was a great combination

Not as rich and heavy as expected – I am not a huge pesto fan but this tasted quite nice. It’s quite light and creamy, the chilli is not too strong and that pesto flavour is lovely and not overpowering. I mixed this through pasta, didn’t add anything else. Tasted great!

Great product in pasta with a nice texture and chili bite
Gaby –
Tastes really good and I’m usually not a fan of green pesto. Great creamy texture, not too oily, and a nice twist with the chilli! Just the right amount for it to be spicy, but not too hot.
Tried it on pasta and as a spread on corn thins. Loved both!
Salv –
Delicious and well balanced pesto that has the right amount of salt and just the right amount of chill not overpowering at all. Very versatile product that just doesn’t have to used with pasta but spread on crackers and eaten with meats.

Love this Pesto and have purchased regularly although the addition of chilli takes an already excellent product to a whole new level. The chilli addition adds flavour not heat. Even the little ones enjoyed. Only subtle drawback is the high sodium and sunflower oil added.

I decided to use my pesto with chilli as a sandwich spread/filling instead of on pasta. I spread it on the top and bottom piece of some focaccia, added cheese, tomato and mortadella and it was delicious.
Vicky –
I loved it. Perfect balance of flavour and heat from chilli. Used leftovers from the fridge. Fast and simple but full of flavour. Whilst to create the sauce whilst waiting for pasta to cook

The chilli pesto was just right not too hot a perfect accompaniment to any dish.
Craig –
Added this to my pasta and have also used on sandwiches – that chili bite made this product superb – will definitely buy in the future.

Really delicious, I use pesto often not just for a quickly pasta, but some flavour in a sweet potato barley rocket type salad 🥗- & this one is lovely & creamy – have been purchasing this product regularly since trying 😊
Not authentic but hits the spot –
I’m not a big pesto fan but even I liked this! The chilli balances the flavour and adds a nice warm buzz.
Of course, it’s not the real deal – mix of sunflower and olive oils, no pine nuts. But if you’re looking for something quick and easy, it hits the spot.
