My kids will eat just about anything if you put cheese or pesto on it. This is a simple, but totally delicious sauce, dip or topping for meat.

Steps

  1. 1

    Toast pine nuts by adding to a pan and cooking over medium heat until they are golden.

  2. 2

    In food processor, add basil leaves, garlic cloves, parmesan cheese and pine nuts. Drizzle in olive oil while pulsing, until all ingredients are smooth.

  3. 3

    Finish off with squeezing the juice of half a lemon (to brighten the flavors) and pulsing one final time.

  4. 4

    Serve however preferred. We love to just dip good Italian bread into it, but you could also use it on meats or in pasta.
