List of Ingredients

2 cups fresh basil (no stems)
2 TB pine nuts
1 cup Pecorino Romano cheese (split in half)
1 cup olive oil (or your preferred choice of oil)
2-3 garlic cloves, chopped
salt and pepper(to taste)


Recipe

Fill blender with fresh basil, pine nuts, garlic, 1/2 cup of the cheese and 1 cup of oil.

Blend until creamy.

Add the other 1/2 cup of cheese and blend until cheese is incorporated, not disintegrated. You still want some texture there with that second 1/2 cup of cheese.

Taste and check for salt and pepper.

Refrigerate.

This can also be frozen in small containers.
