Description
**Please note: packaging may vary ** Is there anything we don’t love about pesto? Herby, cheesy, nutty, super-savory--it packs the exact kind of flavor punch we crave at every meal. For our Knorr Pesto Pasta Sauce, our chefs took the classic Italian recipe, in all its basil-and-parmesan-flavored glory, and transformed it into an easy pasta sauce mix that will take just about any dish you can imagine to the next level. When it comes to the perfect vehicle for pesto sauce, you just can’t beat good, old-fashioned pasta. Toss it in just as your noodles are freshly cooked, right after you’ve drained them, to really incorporate the flavor. Pile with plenty of grated Parmesan before serving. Heaven! Knorr Sauce Mix is made with no artificial flavors or added MSG, except those naturally occurring glutamates.
If weeknight pastas aren’t your style, try brushing boneless, skinless chicken breasts with our Knorr Pesto Pasta Sauce before popping them into the oven. You’ll instantly inject a bit of color while taking your white meat chicken from blah and dry to zesty and flavorful.
Our Sauce Mixes are fantastic whenever you’re looking for a delicious meal topping in a pinch or for a simple dinner. With a wide range of sauce mixes to choose from, we’re sure you’ll find something to help you turn a simply wonderful dinner into a winning one. From a velvety, cream-based version of our Pesto Pasta Sauce to a buttery Béarnaise that’s all but tailor-made for a medium-rare steak, our mixes will make every dish from your home kitchen taste like it came straight from a restaurant.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Milk is not listed as an allergen at the bottom of the ingredients, however this sauce contains cheese. I mistakenly gave it to my child with a milk allergy.

Lots of olive oil

I didn’t like this one as much as I had hoped. It requires too much olive oil and it made the sauce just undesirable. Would recommend two packets of seasoning for the amount of olive oil in one packet.

The recipe has been changed! We have used this mix for a pasta salad for years and have just found that the sauce has no taste any more. The pasta salad is now so bland it is not worth making. Is there anything that could be added to recover the excellent taste that it use to have.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If your looking for a quick and easy side dish then I would highly recommend giving this Knorr Pesto mix a try. Its is very simple to make. You only need water, oil and the sauce packet to make it. The sauce is done in about 5 minutes. I love how quick and tasty it was. I made it as a side for my kids for lunch. We had pesto spaghetti and grilled chicken. They both loved it. My oldest actually added her chicken to the pesto and said that it was amazing! If your looking to try some new pesto sauce then I would definitely recommend this.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love this in the summer as a quick side with some cherry tomatoes thrown in or as a main entree tossed with some grilled or sautéed chicken and some summer vegetables. I haven't tried steak yet, but I bet it would be a nice combo, too. I'm all for easy and flavorful!
Great taste!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Knorr Pesto Sauce Mix added so much flavor to my chicken and pasta dish I recently made. It was so easy to use. I just made it separately and then added it to my dish. It gave it so much extra flavor and did not add very many extra calories. My family loved it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sauce tastes great. It’s nice to not have to buy a bunch of fresh basil to make a pesto sauce. It was easy to make with only water and olive oil. It tasted great with penne pasta and some marinated chicken breasts. I highly recommend this sauce if you like pesto.
Great taste!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a huge fan of Pesto, and this sauce mix did not disappoint. This is the easiest way possible to have delicious pesto sauce with dinner, and it took me only about five minutes to make. This sauce mix also makes an excellent marinade for chicken when mixed with a little olive oil. Even my hard-to-please ten year old loved it, so I definitely recommend it with confidence.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been purchasing Knorr products for years because they are great tasting and usually quick and easy to prepare. This Knorr Pesto Sauce Mix met all of our expectations: very simple to make and it tasted great with a smooth texture. I like that I was able to select which pasta and other ingredients that I wanted to use with the sauce mix in my own recipe creation. There are only 15 calories in each of the 3 servings per packet.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received my Knorr Pesto Sauce Mix and was pleased with the taste. It was easy to use and provided a nice change from the usual sauce I put on pasta. The ingredients are healthy and it was an easy way to add extra healthy ingredients to my pasta. I would recommend this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Knorr Pesto Sauce Mix is a great alternative to keeping a jar of pesto in the refrigerator with hopes of using it up before it goes bad. This way if and when you want pesto sauce you can mix it up fast and fresh tasting. It was easy to prepare. I was surprised that my husband liked it so much. He does not usually eat pesto sauce, but he liked the flavor of this mix. I do like pesto sauce on pasta so although it is a good alternative, I did not think it tastes as authentic as traditionally made pesto sauce. I would buy it again to have on hand for a quick and tasty meal.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like that this mix is easy to prepare and requires few ingredients to be added to it. The instructions on the packet are easy to follow. The mix came together well. Initially I didn't think it would be enough for a box of pasta but the sauce went over the pasta well and provided a nice coating.
