This hearty potato dish keeps warm during our long Alaskan winters. Each summer, I make lots of homemade pesto and freeze it to enjoy throughout the year.

I'm not a big fan of pesto, but I thought these potatoes were actually pretty good. The potatoes were crispy and flavorful, and the pesto sauce was not overpowering.

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. The potatoes were cooked well, but the pesto sauce was a bit bland. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

The potatoes were a bit too crispy for my liking. I think I would have liked them better if I had baked them for a shorter amount of time.

These potatoes were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used a more flavorful pesto sauce.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and the potatoes are always so flavorful. I often add a bit of extra pesto sauce to the potatoes before baking them.

These potatoes were delicious! I used a store-bought pesto sauce and they still turned out great. I will definitely be making these again.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a winner. The potatoes are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the pesto sauce is flavorful and creamy. I highly recommend this recipe!
