I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce turned out really bitter. I think I might have used too much lemon zest.

I'm not a huge fan of pesto, but this dish was surprisingly good. The lemon helped to brighten up the flavor of the pesto.

This recipe was a bit bland for my taste. I think it would have been better with some added spices or herbs.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sauce turned out too oily. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This dish was a bit too lemony for my taste, but overall it was still good. I would recommend using less lemon zest next time.

This lemon pesto pasta was a delightful surprise! The flavors of the lemon and pesto complemented each other perfectly, and the pasta was cooked to al dente perfection. I added some grilled chicken for extra protein, and it was a hit with my family.
