Basil Pesto

Making pesto really is a plant killer! I bought myself a scenty,  basil plant just a day ago and today it already looks like it's been thrown into the shredder. With pesto, it really all comes down to choosing between the plant and the meal. As you can tell, I went for the latter today, and I do feel a tiny bit guilty seeing my poor plant on the window sill beside me now....-but it was worth it! And if you would give me another basil plant and make me decide between life or pesto, I'd ALWAYS go for pesto - and you will too!

This recipe is able to serve for several meals, depnding on how much you decide to add to each pasta portion. Just make sure to add enough olive oil if you do decide to conserve it in the fridge for a few days.
