This was so easy to make, beautiful and absolutely delicious. My husband did his happy dance over these flavors. The crust starts to get soggy after an hour so if you don't have a large group there to eat the entire tart I would suggest assembling them just before serving (assembly takes very little time and make single serving tarts.

I made this at Easter and everyone loved it. Michelle from San Jose--the best pie crust is made with lard--get over it!

Do yourself a favor and make the crust - do not, I repeat, do not use the premade dough. It is awful. Everything else is good but I can't belive she recommended and I tried premade dough. Ugh.

The second main ingredient to this pie crust is Partially Hydrogenated Lard with BHA and BHT; this is trans fat which has much medical evidence proving that it clogs arteries. So unless you would like plaque to form in your arteries and contribute to heart attacks and strokes, among the top killers in this country, avoid this product! I love Giada but I cannot believe she would make such a poor, unhealthy choice of an ingredient.

I made this for several of my girlfriends at a party and everyone loved it. It was so different and yummy! I had to email it to everyone the next day. It was really easy and makes you look like a chef! Thanks Giada and I love your show.

I just happened to have everything in the house while watching Giada make this on her show, "Giada at Home", it's very easy, so pretty and really delicious. I added some roasted red peppers left over that I had made and I might even try goat cheese crumbles on top next time. Sooooooo good.....

This is truly the best pesto I have had. The only change I made was I used the Pillsbury Pizza crust which I crisped first as I din't have the pie crust, but still it turned out DELICIOUS!!
Love Giada.

I was looking for something light for a late night dinner and this was perfect! The pesto was the best I've eaten. I had most of the ingredients on hand including fresh tomatoes from our Farmers' Market, but had to substitute puff pastry for pie pastry. Still delicious and I was asked to make sure to prepare it again!
