Pistachio Pesto Pasta with Crispy Guanciale

Never been to Rome? No worries, I’ll take you there with this Roman Holiday Pasta.
This dish captures the spirit of the Eternal City with a simple yet sensational twist: classic pesto meets one of my favorite Roman ingredients, crispy, savory, salty guanciale. It’s bold, comforting, and full of flavor, like a Roman vacation on a plate.
