Toss with chopped basil and mint.

My Rating: 4/5 "Given the ingredient list, you'd expect these to be really spicy or really sweet, but they're not. The flavor that comes through the most is actually the pesto, and everything else is just kind of a pleasant backdrop. I didn't understand the basil and mint until I took a bite, and then I was bowled over by how well they complimented the sauce. My partner scarfed these wings down like candy, and since he's a chicken wing aficionado that's a ringing endorsement."
