I looked for basil all over the market, coz my regular vegetable grocer was out of them and I had to make this black olive pesto sandwich for breakfast, this Sunday.... so I got my head scratching and pluck some fresh Indian basil (tulsi) from my own plant at home,,,, and walla!!! I had discovered a tastier version of my usual olive basil pesto recipe. I will never look for basil anywhere else but I will use my own fresh tulsi,,, It's a must try,,,, delish! Fresh and very healthy protein sandwich
