Pesto

I made pesto for the first time with basil from my garden. It was so easy and so delicious.

3 cloves of garlic ( I like alot of garlic)
2 cups of basil leaves
olive oil
toasted walnuts (or pine nuts)
salt & pepper
parmesean cheese

In a food processor pulse the garlic & basil. Drizzle in oil while pulsing until it reaches the consistency you are looking for. Add salt and pepper to taste. Meanwhile toast the walnuts or pine nuts in a hot dry pan. Add to food processor and pulse to incorporate in sauce. Pour over your favorite hot pasta. Garnish w/ parmesean cheese. No need to heat the sauce the pasta will do that for you.

I served it with Garlic Bread.

Thanks. I guess I'm all excited because it was the first time I used basil from my own garden.
