Notes
Switch up the seasonings to customize this recipe. Italian seasoning, lemon pepper or fajita seasoning would all be yummy.
Cook heartier root veggies and mushrooms for 20 minutes like beets, parsnips and potatoes.
Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave for 1-2 minutes.
Add a bit more pesto to the dish before reheating for added flavour.
