Trader Joe’s Innovates with Mushroom & Truffle Flavored Pesto

If you’re a fan of rich, deep flavors, you’re going to want to give Trader Joe’s latest Retail Brand gourmet innovation TJ’s Mushroom & Truffle Flavored Pesto a try. It’s positively packed with umami-imbued ingredients, including romano cheese; portabella, cremini, and shiitake mushrooms; and white truffle oil. These fun, fungi components are suspended in a smooth oil blend, with some pine nuts added for crunch (and pesto credibility). It’s finished with chopped Italian parsley, sea salt, and black pepper, creating a Pesto that imparts intense savory flavor to your plate of pasta.

TJ’s Quite Possibly the World’s Largest Fusilli is a great delivery system for this Mushroom & Truffle Flavored Pesto, as the sauce easily clings to the spiral shape. Or you can smear a spoonful atop Brie en Croûte to create a hand-held appetizer that’s lacking for nothing in the flavor department.
