Happy Sunday! Today, I’m making homemade pesto because as the holidays get busier, it’s something I can grab from the fridge and easily put together. Add to your favorite pasta and you have a wonderful homemade meal in minutes. The recipe, so super simple, is below.
I also love using pesto with Caprese salad. Drizzle a little more olive oil on top for more moisture. Also, excellent on sandwiches.
THE RECIPE
3 cups (packed) basil leaves
4 gloves garlic
1/4c pine nuts
1/4c walnuts
1c parmesan cheese
1/2c olive oil + a little more
salt
I just throw it all in a food processor and pulse until it reaches the consistency I like. This recipe serves four.
Enjoy!
