Favorite Pesto
















This recipe came from, Healing Herbs. We have a local company, Osage Gardens, from which you can buy fresh basil pretty much year round. Vitamin Cottage cares the brand. Love to eat pesto on toast, crackers, serve with pasta, chicken, fish or stir in 1 tablespoon into soups at the last minute; pretty much on anything! And it freezes beautiful, that is if you have any leftover...

Ingredients:


  • 1 cup packed fresh basil
  • 1 cup finely grated fresh Parmesan
  • 1/2 cup toasted pine nuts
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • fresh ground pepper to taste
Directions: 


Place all ingredients in a food processor and blend. Slowly add the olive oil until of a creamy consistency.
