OMG this pesto sauce is YUMMY! If I hadn't restrained myself, I might have eaten the entire jar of pesto sauce. Who needs "pasta"? I was eating it by the spoonful, but it tastes damn good with the spaghetti squash and meatballs.
4 oz fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup pine nuts
1 clove garlic
3/4 tsp sea salt
pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
1/3 cup EVOO
1. Place the basil, pine nuts, garlic, salt, and red pepper flakes into a food processor.
2. Process until smooth.
3. Slowly pour in the EVOO. Stop a couple times to scrape down the sides of your food processor bowl, if needed.
Serve it up... and try not to eat it all at once.
