Here's what you'll need:
Ingredients:
1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
1 large clove garlic, halved
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
1-2 c. fresh basil leaves
1/4 c. pine nuts
1/2 c. olive oil
In a food processor, combine Parmesan, garlic, salt, and pepper. Process until the garlic is minced. Add fresh basil leaves and pine nuts and process until the basil is finely ground. With the motor running, gradually add olive oil and blend until almost smooth. Transfer to a small bowl, cover and refrigerate. To store for up to 1 week, spoon additional oil over to pesto to cover by 1/4 inch. Makes about 1/2 cup.
Prior to tonight, I had never had Pesto, but I really liked it. It was a different way to eat pasta, but it was very good. You should try this today...it's so easy!
