    Pesto with Basil and Nuts: A Recipe for Busy Parents

    As a busy stay-at-home parent, I know how hard it can be to make time to cook a nutritious and delicious meal while still managing all of the other tasks that come with being a parent. That’s why I’m so glad I discovered this delicious pesto with basil and nuts recipe! It’s quick, easy, and packed with flavor. Plus, the ingredients are easy to find in most grocery stores.

    To get started, gather your ingredients. You will need:
    • 1 cup fresh basil leaves
    • ½ cup toasted nuts (I usually use walnuts or pine nuts)
    • 2 cloves garlic
    • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
    • 2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
    • Salt and pepper to taste

    Now it’s time to make the pesto! Start by crushing the garlic cloves in a mortar and pestle (or you can use a food processor if you don’t have a mortar and pestle). Then add the basil leaves, nuts, olive oil, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Blend everything together until it forms a smooth paste. Now your pesto is ready to be served!

    I like to serve my pesto with pasta or as a dip for vegetables. It also makes a great sandwich spread. The best part is that my kids love it too! They especially enjoy it when I tell them the story behind the pesto – how it was originally made by farmers in Italy who needed an easy way to use up their leftover basil leaves and nuts.

    This recipe is one of my go-to meals when I’m short on time but still want to make something tasty and nutritious. Plus, it only takes about 10 minutes to make, so I know that even on my busiest days I can still get dinner on the table quickly.

    If you’re looking for an easy way to add some extra flavor to your meals, then try this delicious pesto with basil and nuts recipe! You won’t regret it!
