This pesto sauce is made at home, doesn't have any nuts, and tastes great with fresh basil. You can use it to give your favorite dishes a low-carb, high-fat boost.
Ingredients: 2 cups fresh basil leaves, packed. 3 cloves garlic. 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese. 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions: Put basil leaves, garlic, and Parmesan cheese in a food processor and blend them together. Pulse until the food is very small. Slowly pour the olive oil into the food processor while it is running until the mixture is smooth and well mixed. Add pepper and salt to taste, and pulse a few more times to mix everything together. Put the pesto sauce in a jar or other container that won't let air in. It can be kept in the fridge for up to a week.
