Pesto

Ingredients:

¾-1 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)

½ cup nuts (we used almonds, but can substitute pine nuts)

2-4 cloves garlic

¾ TBS garlic powder

½ cup parmesan cheese

Salt and pepper to taste

¾ cup fresh basil (about 1 doz leaves)

Recipe Instructions


Using a blender: Blend oil, garlic and nuts first, adding basil and garlic powder… then add cheese and s and p to taste. To thicken pesto, add more parmesan cheese, but remember it is salty, so you want to use less salt if you add more cheese!
