    We love this Pesto by Barilla.
    I use it on focaccia’s, wraps and add to pasta.
    Very nice and the texture is good. I find some a bit grainy.
    Def recommend this one. (I have never made my own)

    + PROS: Tastes good versatile

    It had an OK taste in the peene chicken dish but family preferred the taste of freshly made pesto. Convenient if in a hurry or don’t have fresh basil handy to make your own!

    + PROS: Convenient Easy to use
    - CONS: Price

    Good for a quick and easy meal.

    + PROS: Quality ingredients.
    - CONS: Basil flavour too strong, presumably from the basil extract added. Not as nice as freshly made, but close.

    This is already a family favourite in our house but this time I thought I’d ty to stretch it a little further by adding chicken breast strips to the “Pesto Pasta” meal. This proved to be an absolute hit!
    The Barilla Pesto alla Genovese is flavoursome without being too overpowering or too lacking. The flavour is just right with the aroma of the delicious pesto greeting your senses as you take the first mouthful. Whilst it is a small jar, it does go a long way, easily distributing throughout a 500g packet of penne pasta & feeding our family of five. The addition of freshly grated parmesan is an ideal enhancement to this already perfect meal.
    The convenience of simply adding the contents of the jar to precooked pasta (& chicken) is the cherry on top (or in this case, parmesan on top!).

    + PROS: Delicious, quick, easy, convenient.
    - CONS: Cannot think of any!
