Another fruit of the summer garden is the almond. The trees are full of almonds and one of the many things that can be done with them is pesto. A variation of the classic Italian pasta sauce. The almonds give the pesto more of a nutty taste then the pine nuts, is also is darker [...]

A good way of using my leftovers from the lamb roast is making pasta. I love using Tagliatelle with roasted meat, especially when I have some delicious Jus to combine it with. A simple dish that’s full of taste.
