I agree with the comments of others. Add more garlic, use less salt and olive oil. I also wish I would have doubled or tripled the recipe while I was at it. Otherwise really good and a great use of the basil in my window box!

Classic Italian sauce that is great on pasta or as a spread on panini. One of my all-time favorite foods.

That's all I really have to say! This is my first time making pesto, and I have to say this was really easy and came out SOOOOOOOO good. I did use a bit less olive oil - about 1/3 of a up - just because I like mine a bit thicker. Again, YUMMMM!!

This is an easy basic pesto for anyone to make. I would leave out the salt and just add it to taste. I double or triple this recipe every time so I can freeze some. Adding more cheese is always a crowd pleaser or just wait and throw it on top of each dish you serve. I also add more garlic then it calls for. There really is no right or wrong.

I made this with basil from our window box garden, and other ingredients we had around already. It was quick, easy, and delightfully fresh.

I use this recipe to keep my basil as a staple in my kitchen! I do make about 3 batches, depending on how much basil I have on hand and then freeze it in ice cube trays.
