10 Cheeses That Go Well with Pesto Pasta

Pasta is great, but it can definitely get boring. You may have noticed that most pasta dishes are pretty similar to one another—they're all just different kinds of sauces or toppings on a bed of pasta.
That's why we love cheese in pesto pasta. It adds something special to your pesto-sauced dish, and you don't have to worry about it getting boring or old.
Cheese is perfect for this because it goes well with the basil and pine nuts flavors in the pesto sauce, and it makes the whole thing taste fresh and new every time you eat it.
