Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 c. fresh basil leaves (Trader Joe's has large pkg or fresh plant)
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/4 c. freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (Trader Joe's)
  • 2 T. pine nuts (Trader Joe's)
  • 1 clove minced garlic
  • 1/2 c. extra-virgin olive oil
  • Pasta (I used Trader Joe's cheese tortellini)

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a food processer (I have the little one), combine basil, salt, pepper and process a few seconds until the basil is chopped. Add the cheese, pine nuts, and garlic, and while the processor is running, add the oil in a thin steady stream until a mostly smooth sauce is formed.
  2. Transfer pesto into a bowl and set aside.
  3. Pesto may be made 1 day in advance; seal air out w/plastic wrap, lay on top to seal air out. Double for larger group.
  4. I put the tortellini on skewers for appetizers and used pesto for dipping.
