Not a fan. The pesto crust was too salty and the turkey was dry.

This dish was okay. The sage pesto crust was a bit too overpowering for my taste, but the turkey was cooked well.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. The sage pesto crust didn't have much flavor and the turkey was a bit dry. I would not recommend this recipe.

This dish was a little too salty for my taste, but overall it was still good. The turkey was cooked perfectly and the pesto crust was flavorful.
