Basil Pesto

Thanks to Ruthie Hershberger, we have lots of basil.  So a little while ago I made pesto with it.  It was about 4 cups of basil.  I put it in the food processor and chopped it.  Then I added 4 cloves garlic and 1 cup toasted pine nuts and pulsed it smooth.  Then added about 1 1/2 cups Parmesan cheese and added oil until it was the right consistency.  I'm going to use it in the vegetables that I'm making for dinner tonight.  And use it in pastas, pizzas, and whatever else later on.  Pesto is good.
