This will be ready in no tome. All you need is 5 minute prep time, 11 minute bake time. In about 15 minutes, you;ll be ready with sixteen servings! That's perfect for any occasion.
It is great touse fresh homemade asil pesto. I always keep Basil Pesto in fridge and this freezes well for six months too! Check that out and you wont need store-bought ones at all. Just in case, the recipe works with store-bought pesto too! Also, play around with different pesto to make different delicious versions of these spirals or pinwheels.ow that crescent rool may be a bit sweet, sprinkle with chili flakes to balance as per taste. Parmesan can also be sprinkled that adds a finishing touch.
Trust me, these will be gone that quick that there is no question for storing leftovers or freezing them. In fact, you'll be making second or third batch instead. Sprinkle a little parmesan and/or chili flakes for added flavor.
