Instructions
- Place the mayonnaise, sour cream, pesto, salt, pepper, lemon juice and garlic in a medium bowl.
- Stir until well combined.
- Use immediately, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Before serving, garnish if desired with a swirl of pesto, diced tomatoes, basil leaves and pine nuts.
- Serve with assorted breads, crackers and vegetables as desired.
Notes
- This recipe will work with both homemade or store bought pesto. I typically use the pesto found in tubs in the refrigerator section of the grocery store. I find that the fresh pesto tastes better than shelf stable pesto.
- You can use low fat versions of mayonnaise and sour cream if you're looking for a healthier option.
