Pesto Cream Sauce image

This pesto cream sauce can have chicken added to it for a heartier meal or be made as is and is great served at a potluck or bbq cold or warm. Warm is best though. It would be awesome served with grilled chicken or vegetables. Omit the chicken and use vegetable broth paste to make this vegetarian.
