BOM Pesto Pasta
A quick favorite that I enjoy making…and to me…its quite tasty!
- 2 cups Fresh Basil (I grow my own Basil using an AeroGarden, so I cut fresh herbs from my plants.)
- 3 tsp Garlic Cloves minced (optional 3 teaspons of minced garlic)
- 1/8 Tsp Black Pepper
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oll (I used the Kirklands brand)
- 1/2 cup Parmeasan Cheese
- 1/3 cup pine nuts (optional)
- 6 ounces pasta
- 4 each heirloom tomatos (I grow these too, so again I pick them freshly from my AeroGarden tomato plant.)
Cook pasta according to instructions. I use a pasta cooker that takes 15 minutes. drain sprinkle with a touch of olive oil and set aside.
Combine the fresh-cut basil, minced garlic, black pepper, salt, virgin olive oil in NutriBlast or food processor of choice until it reaches your desired consistency. I do mine until it is a smooth texture.
Add the pesto sauce on top of the pasta, garnish with toasted pine nuts, parmeasan cheese and tomatoes (if desired) and serve.
