Congrats to you! I love fresh basil and pesto in particular.

Pesto is good as the base sauce on pizza. That is, if you can find a
low-carb recipe for that that you like.

Chicken salad is good with pesto mayo.

Poached fish with pesto would be good.

I've seen certain summer soups sevred with a dollop of pesto on top.
Maybe Google that.

Just some ideas off the top of my head,
