I made a very simple recipe last night and it was delicious! It’s also a good recipe for Friday’s. It's from my Cooking Basics book by Betty Crocker.
1 cup firmly packed fresh basil leaves
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/3 cup olive or vegetable oil (I used olive oil)
2 cloves garlic
1/4 cup pine nuts (I didn't add nuts because I didn't have any)
1. Place all ingredients in blender or food processor.
2. Cover and blend on medium speed about 3 minutes, stopping occasionally to scrape sides, until smooth.
3. Pour over 8oz (1/2 a box) of cooked Rigatoni

I LOVE pesto too! Have you ever tried it on a turkey sandwich? ahh, it is delish!
actually, i've never made my own before, so I'm glad you posted a recipe. I've been wanting to try for a long time!
When I was a little girl this was my favorite thing to eat.
I used to ask for pasta al pesto all the time.
