First, make sure you have some fresh basil growing! If you are a true Brooklynite you will have it growing on your fire-escape or anywhere else you can fit it. I use it all the time in other recipes... I truly believe everyone should have fresh basil growing in their home.
Pesto Recipe:
2 cups fresh basil leaves
1/2 cup olive oil
3 TSP. Walnuts
2-3 cloves of garlic
1 tsp lemon juice
pinches of salt and pepper
Blend all together in blender
then add
1/2 cup grated cheese(Romano or Parmesan)
2 tbsp butter
2 tbsp cream cheese and blend away....
