3 cups of fresh basil
3 large Cloves of Garlic
1/3 cup of olive oil
1/3 grated soy cheese (or regular grated Parmesan)
Place basil leaves and garlic in blender or food processor and mince well. Drizzle in olive oil, as you keep the machine running. When you have a smooth paste, transfer to a bowl and stir in grated cheese (either soy or dairy).
Season with salt and pepper.
To serve, place room temperature pesto in a warmed serving bowl. Add pasta and toss thoroughly. Allow 2 to 3 Tbs. Pesto per serving.
Pesto tastes great, Lydia.
ReplyDeleteI love the green pesto and also
the red pesto with red peppers.
It is a very good addition to
noodles.
