Plant 1 basil plant in the spring and pull out in the fall. You will have pesto for an entire YEAR.
Grind in blender or food processor:
3 cups basil leaves
3 cloves garlic (4 tsp minced garlic)
1/3 cup parmesan
1 cup olive oil
1 tsp salt
2 tsp pepper
1 tbls lemon juice
Spoon the pesto into ice cube trays. Cover trays and freeze for one day. Next day, pop out pesto "icecubes" and place in ziplop baggy in the freezer.
1 Icecube = 2 tbls pesto = enough for a pesto dish for 2
2 Icecube = 4 tbls pesto = enough for a pesto dish for 4 and so on...
