Pesto Sauce

I love to use fresh pesto sauce in pasta dishes, sandwiches and beyond… it freezes well in ice cube trays, so the perfect portion is always ready whenever you need it.

INGREDIENTS

• 2 cups packed basil leaves
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 1/2 cup Pecorino Romano cheese (Parmesan works, too)
• 1/4 cup pine nuts
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

HOW TO MAKE IT

• Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth
