Pesto Sauce Recipe: Easy To Cook

Pesto Sauce Recipe: Easy To Cook

I like to serve the pesto over butter gnocchi with an extra sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. Gnocchi are light little Italian potato dumplings, which are available in Italian grocery stores and cook up in mere minutes. The pesto is also delicious tossed with penne or other types of pasta.

Ingredients

    * 3 cups fresh basil leaves
    * 1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts
    * 4 cloves garlic, peeled
    * 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    * 1 cup olive oil
    * salt and pepper to taste

Directions

    * In a food processor, blend together basil leaves, nuts, garlic, and cheese. Pour in oil slowly while still mixing. Stir in salt and pepper.
