MY SALMON PESTO with SWEET POTATOES, BROCCOLI AND CORN!

I love pesto, especially when I make it at home. However, sometimes if I am in a hurry, I purchase it, freeze what I am not using in small Mason jars, and stick a label with the expiration date. This hack helps me to use food effectively and not waste a drop of it. Boom!
