Our garden is exploding with basil! Dream come true! And since I bought the big bag of pine nuts at Costco, for $25, I feel compelled to make lots of pesto :)
Basil, toasted pine nuts, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper. You also add Parmesan cheese, but not until just before serving. Especially if you make a large batch and freeze portions, the cheese doesn't freeze well. Whip this all together in a food processor, and enjoy!
So great to have a bunch of these in the freezer! In addition to pasta sauce, we put it on pizza the other night, in place of tomato sauce. It was a hit, and not much is needed, because of the strong flavor.
