Basil Pesto
Everyone needs a simple pesto recipe. I prefer my pestos without pine nuts, honestly beause I never have them on hand! This is one of those non-recipe recipes that gives you freedom to taste your way through and make it your own. Have fun!
Ingredients:
2 packed cup basil leaves
1/2 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
2 cloves of garlic
juice from a lemon
1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan
Directions:
In a high speed blender, put all of the pesto ingredients. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
