Pesto Sauce

Ingredients 

2 cups of fresh basil 

¼ cup of pine nuts 

1 garlic clove 

½ cup of olive oil 

½ cup of freshly grated cheese 

Salt and pepper 

Directions

In the food processor pulse the 

basil, pine nuts, garlic and salt and 

pepper. 

With the processor running gradually add enough oil to form a thick consistency. 

Transfer mixture to a bowl and stir in the grated cheese. 

This sauce is great for gnocchi. 

When adding to pasta save a little of your water to mix in the pesto sauce. 

* Another great way to serve this is, layer a piece of sliced tomato, fresh mozzarella and a little pesto sauce, top with fresh chopped basil and a little oil. It is really delicious.
