Pesto...

Recently I learned that I love Pesto...either mixed in a hot pasta dish, served in a cold salad dish or even on the side -&- used for dipping!?!
It is so fresh -&- so delicious it can compliment many meals!?!



Ingredients:

3 cups packed fresh basil leaves
4 cloves garlic
3/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup pine nuts
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Directions:

Combine basil, garlic, Parmesan cheese, olive oil,
and nuts in the bowl of a food processor or blender.
Blend to a smooth paste.
Add parsley if desired.



Today I am thankful that I am giving the opportunity to go to new place -&- try new things so I can learn about things I find I then like!?!
