PESTO DIPPING OIL

Pesto Dipping Oil image

This is absolutely my favorite and easiest appetizer for entertaining. It is simply delicious with its combination of balsamic vineger, pesto and Parmesan cheese. Use it to marinate cubes of cheese and mushrooms for another simple appetizer.-Alice Schucard, Carlsbad, California
