Note from Sarah: The measurements are very loose.
4 cups loosely packed fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup pine nuts (walnuts would work too)
1 clove garlic
Extra virgin olive oil (quality counts here; expensive cold pressed varieties from speciality stores are so worth every penny!!)
Blend it all together (I used my Cuisinart food processor instead) drizzling oil until you have a wet paste.
Pesto is great mixed with pasta hot or cold. Add grated Parmesan, tomatoes, grilled chicken, veggies, etc. Pesto is also good on pizza, or mixed in rice served with fish.
Yummy
