A simple basil pignoli pesto recipe, I love it on everything. It’s easy to make and versatile. A classic pesto recipe that goes well with so many things. Some of my favorites: a slice of crusty bread, pasta, tarts, fish, drizzled over steam veggies, on a grilled chicken breast, on a panini sandwich, or on a pizza. It’s said that the best way to make it is with a mortar and pestle but I think a food processor makes it faster and easier method when you are running around and if you don’t have one a blender works too. —LolaLobato
