Notes

This can be made ahead of time and placed, covered in the fridge until ready to use. Bring to room temperature before serving.

You can use more or less cheese, herbs and black pepper, or add other seasonings of your choice.

Olive oil can be plain or flavoured. I used pesto flavoured olive oil in this recipe.

Great for pasta, but also use to top chicken or seafood. In a pinch it can be used as bruschetta too.
