I love scalloped potato casserole dishes. .  and love to vary them up all the time. Last year, I topped my potatoes with sliced tomatoes and now, I seem to do this all the time. I love the freshness and burst of flavor that the tomatoes add.

Easter is right around the corner so I wanted to add a little something special.  . so I added my favorite pesto in between the potato layers.
