Queso Blanco with Pesto

This simple and delicious appetizer will surprise you. Tropical Queso Blanco is paired with freshly made pesto, crafted with basil, garlic, walnuts, olive oil, and a pinch of chili flakes. This twist on the traditional pesto swaps pine nuts for walnuts and adds chili flakes, which will make perfect sense once you take the first bite of this seasoned cheese. Serve it with your favorite crackers, or go straight for the pieces with a toothpick. Either way, you’ll impress both your taste buds and your guests with its tasty, creamy recipe.
