It's been far too long since I've posted. Not cooked, just posted. Moving in to our new home has taken more time, and then too there's been a lot of family fun. To get the ball rolling, I am making a version of my girl's pesto sauce. I planted my first container garden and most of what I planted was basil. It's flourishing! Until a few months ago, I seriously did not know my beloved basil was a main pesto ingredient! We'll nibble tonite and have it on a flatbread pizza in a few nights. Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS:
1 large, packed handful fresh basil
5 garlic cloves
1/3+ cup shredded parmesan
1/2 cup walnuts
Kosher salt and ground pepper to taste
Up to 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
STEPS:
1. Place all ingredient except EVOO in food processor and combine.
2. Slowly pour in EVOO until mixture reaches your desired consistency
Serve! Use on bruschetta, as a spread, on pizza, as a dip. Or just drink it.
Spot gives this 4 paws because she looooves the aroma.
