Happy Monday everybody!! I am bringing y’all today another one in my How to Series that is definitely one of my favorites, pesto. I love pesto so much, it’s such a simple addition but it makes everything it’s plastered placed on taste better-at least I think so haha.
Following in my former How To steps this one is also beyond easy to make and can be whipped up in about 5 minutes-honestly took me longer to get my food processor out and put together than to make it.
If you’re looking for some ideas, one of my favorite things to do on my cheat day is to toast some bread and slather some fresh pesto, a dash of mozzarella and some tomatoes and nosh away, it’s so good y’all. I hope everyone has a great first day back from your weekend and hope you get an opportunity to make some fresh pesto soon.

- Food Processor.
- Place basil, pine nuts, garlic & cheese into your food processor and mix until the texture becomes fine.
- Take the processor top off and scrape down the inside to make sure all of it is in the bottom.
- Place the top back on and turn your food processor back on and slowly pour your olive oil into your mixture until your desired texture is met.
- Now you can add your salt and pepper to taste mixing thoroughly and enjoy!
- You can add as little or as much olive oil depending on how thick or thin you like your pesto.
