2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil

This dish is a great way to use up leftover linguine. I always have a box of linguine in my pantry, and this is a great way to use it up.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less salt.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pesto sauce turned out really bitter. I think I might have used too much lemon zest.

The pesto sauce was a little bland. I think it needed more garlic and salt.
