After spending a couple of days in Denver, we headed west to Breckenridge, Colorado. To say that it was breathtaking - is an understatement. This is downtown Breckenridge... As you might expect, we did a little shopping in Breckenridge while we were there. The girls discovered one particular store that caught their fancy. I think it rained in Georgia every day that we were on vacation. The good news is that my garden was looking better than ever when I returned. (I think my garden does better when I'm not at home - maybe I should go on vacation more often.) My basil was especially prolific so I decided to use it up and make some fresh pesto. Basil Genovese 4 cups fresh basil 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil 1/2 cup grated parmesan 1/4 cup pine nuts 3 Tablespoons pecorino cheese 2 cloves garlic, chopped Wash basil and blanch in boiling water for 1 minute. Add to food processor along with remaining ingredients.
This pesto is great on pasta, sandwiches and even pizza. I will be posting my pesto pizza recipe soon so stay tuned for that. If you haven't liked my blog of facebook, make sure that you do so you don't miss out on any of my recipes. There are over 800 recipes on the blog - there's bound to be at least one that strikes your fancy.
Ciao!
