Here's my recipe for
Garlicky, Lemony, Yummy Pesto
Add 2 cups of fresh basil, 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, 3 garlic cloves, 3 tablespoons of pinenuts, 1 tablespoon of lemon zest, the juice of half a lemon, and a pinch of pepper into a blender or food processor and let it blend until you get the desired texture.
Use as a fresh topping to pasta, chicken, fish, beef, whatever.
Super easy and fast... the blender does all the work for you!

I love it, a pesto recipe with no parmesan! I definitely will try this one out.
