Right now I have basil bushes growing in my garden. Three of them. It's a lot of basil. One of my favorite things to make is homemade pesto! Well, that and bruschetta. The kids were a little afraid of the overwhelming "green factor", but it turned out they really enjoyed the pasta!
The best part though, is pesto is so EASY to make. Easy is very important. Especially when school starts, we have homework, sports, and lots of baking. I want my dinners to be easy.
Enjoy!

This looks like a great recipe! Pesto is one of my favorite Italian flavors!
I just wanted to let you know that today I have posted one of your peanut butter cookie recipes on my blog. I tried it out and loved them! I made sure you let everyone know it was your recipe, too. Thank you!!

I have an INSANE amount of basil growing in my backyard! For some reason I didn't realize that pesto was made with basil, and you just made me so excited to try this recipe!
My neighbor just brought us a ton of fresh basil - perfect timing on this one!
You got my attention with the words "pesto" and "pasta" in the title... as always, it's a treat to see what you've conjured up in your kitchen. :)
YUMMMMMM. I die for pesto! I put it on literally everything and have been searching for a good recipe so I can make pesto pizza at home. Thanks for this, Aimee!
Nice Post
I've been craving for pesto pasta this week, thank you for sharing this! It is okay to use a gluten free pasta for this dish?
