Pesto
2 C packed basil ( or mix of herbs)
3/4 C olive oil
4 cloves garlic
1/2 tsp salt ( can leave out as Parmesan has salt)
5-6 TBS pine nuts, or walnuts or almonds or for stronger nut flavor, hazelnuts
1 C Parmesan cheese
Blend through nuts in processor, then add cheese
Top with a drizzle of olive oil before refrigeration or freeze.
Sometimes I process without the cheese and use for dipping or a topping for fresh tomatoes, etc.
