Smile Pesto

This pesto sauce works well for pizza and pasta too!

Nice toppings include smoked chicken, goat cheese, smoked salmon, fresh motz...well, it's all good!

Take 2 cups fresh basil leaves, 3 cloves of garlic, 2 T Pine nuts and a pinch of salt. Put in food processor and blend. Then add 1/2 cup of good olive oil while running until it becomes a paste. Blend in 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese.

(Pine nuts might be considered optional. We've used walnuts as a variation.)

This sauce freezes well in small zip locs since you don't need much.

t's really a pretty easy sauce to make and tastes great!
