Basil Pesto

My favorite thing to do with all of those fresh herbs (aside from sprinkling them on everything) is to make pesto! It’s especially great for lazy summertime cooking. This classic basil pesto recipe is easy and simple to make. With just a few easy steps, it makes anything an instant tasty meal whether you feel like cooking or not.
