What you need:
- Fresh basil
- Fresh parm cheese
- Pine nuts (optional)
- Olive oil
- Salt
Blend all of the above to taste using plenty of EVOO
My kids like the "round and round" rotelli rainbow pasta but stir the pesto sauce into any cooked pasta you like, finally of course top with fresh ("sprinkles") Parmesean cheese
-Tip- Pesto pasta is a little plain for me so for the adults, I add fresh tomatoes, olives, or marinated artichokes and chicken
-Tip- this pesto sauce freezes well.
-BONUS TIPS-I marinate chicken in it then bake OR for a delicious marinera with lots of flavor, I pour the pesto into a can of boiling hot crushed tomatoes.
