3/4 cup olive oil
2 cups fresh basil leaves- lightly packed

Remember a little pesto goes a long way. We often toss this with fettuccini and some steamed vegetables for a quick dinner. Or, saut� some shrimp and asparagus in olive oil and garlic and use angel hair with the pesto. We also like to make shrimp pizza with it or bake it on chicken.
