Greatest letter and recipe from 10 year old Caroline

I received this adorable letter last night from the daughter of a loyal subscriber. I love how her recipe even includes a Scramble Flavor Booster and a Tip!!

Dear Aviva,
We are big fans of the Six O'Clock Scramble. The meals are delicious and my mom says that the preparing is easy. Enclosed is a recipe that I got at my camp that people came back for thirds of. It is a delicious and creamy Alfredo Pesto Sauce that will please children and adults alike! We made it at home, too.
Love,

Alfredo Pesto Sauce

This dish is quick and easy to make and is always a crowd pleaser. Serve with Harvest Salad (I made up this salad.)

Ingredients:

1 cup fresh basil leaves
1/3 cup pine nuts or walnuts
2 garlic cloves
1/3 cup olive oil
1 cup grated parmesan
1 cup whipping cream
1 pound capellini or spaghetti, freshly cooked

Directions:

Finely chop basil, nuts and garlic in processor. With machine running, gradually add olive oil through feed tube and process until smooth. Add 1/2 of parmesan. Transfer finished pesto to small jar. (This can be prepared four days ahead. Pour in enough olive oil over sauce to cover. Cover and refrigerate.)

Bring cream to boil in a heavy medium sauce pan. Whisk in pesto. Season sauce and remaining 1/2 cup parmesan in large bowl. Toss to coat pasta evenly and serve.

Scramble flavor booster: Don't forget the parmesan cheese!

Tip: Continually stir cream so that it won't burn.

Serve with Harvest Salad.

Needed:

Lettuce
1 Apple
Grated Carrots
Grated Swiss Cheese

Cut apple. Mix all of above and sprinkle with swiss cheese.


Enjoy.

Love,

Caroline S.
