Healthy Snacks for Adults

Sometimes finding healthy snacks can be difficult. Even as adults we tend to go for the unhealthy snacks. Whether it is chips, cookies or other unhealthy choices, when it comes to snacks, everyone can fall victim to choosing the wrong thing. Having a healthy snack idea, one that is keto friendly, is a great idea. When you have something easy to grab it can help you stay on track. These turkey roll ups with pesto is a great choice.

How Long Does Pesto Last

When you are using a homemade pesto recipe, it will usually stay good in the refrigerator for about a week. If you are using store bought bottled pesto, the unopened bottle of pesto will last about 3 weeks, when stored in the refrigerator. Once opened the pesto will last about 2 weeks. The opened bottle of pesto must be stored in the refrigerator. These times change when the pesto is not stored properly or when not kept in the refrigerator.
