Simple Basil Pesto

Basil pesto is a must-have in any kitchen. It’s quick and easy to make with fresh basil leaves and keeps well in the fridge for several days. You can use it to add a burst of flavor to pasta, sandwiches, gnocchi, pizza, and much more! It’s as simple as tossing ingredients into a blender or a food processor, and you’ll be ready to go!

Why Our Recipe:

  • Much better than any jar you could ever buy!
  • Comes together in 5 minutes.
  • Substitute options for pine nuts.

Pesto brings an amazing bright flavor to any dish. It originated in the Italian city of Genoa, where the Italians have been making this delicious sauce for centuries.

Ingredient Notes:

  • Basil: The base of pesto and you should use fresh.
  • Garlic: Always use fresh garlic for the best flavor since it will be eaten raw.
  • Parmesan Cheese: Use freshly grated or freshly shredded for this.
  • Olive Oil: This adds smoothness and fat, and it helps to carry all the other ingredients’ flavors. Use a little more if you need to thin out your pesto.
  • Pine Nuts: Pine nuts can be expensive, so sunflower seeds are the most affordable substitutes. You can also use walnuts, pecans, or almonds.

Change Things Up: While basil pesto is classic, you can actually change up your pesto game by swapping out your basil for cilantro, mint, parsley, or a mix of any of them. You can also add in arugula, spinach, or sundried tomatoes.
