how to make this pesto dip

can you make this pesto dip ahead of time?
Yes! You can prepare the dip ahead of time, store in a sealed container in the fridge then bake before serving. I would add a couple of minutes to the baking time if it is coming right out of the fridge.
What can I serve with this pesto dip?
Toasted baguettes are delicious! But you can serve with pita chips, garlic bread, or any sturdy, flavorful cracker you like. And you can also serve it with veggies for a low carb option.
Can I reheat the pesto dip?
Yes! I would just take out the desired amount and reheat in the microwave for 15-20 second intervals until desired heat is achieved.
