Beef & Pesto Spaghetti With Cherry Tomatoes

Here’s another variation for a Pesto pasta dish which frankly I could eat all day but we all know that’s not a good idea. I mean, leftovers are fine, of course. 😉 Just to keep you abreast of Pesto pasta recipes on this blog, there’s the Shrimp And Pesto Spaghetti, Pesto Chicken Spaghetti, Shrimp & Penne in Pesto Sauce, and Shrimp & Fettuccine In Pesto Sauce.

Now he’s a new recipe that’s equally delicious and would definitely going to be added in Pesto rotation in my household, Beef & Pesto Spaghetti With Cherry Tomatoes.
