Small Batch Pesto Sauce
Small Batch Pesto Sauce
Since I have a fresh basil plant that only yields about a cup of basil at a time, this recipe works great. Most recipes call for two to three cups of basil. This makes enough for two small pasta dishes or for using as a rub over chicken. If you want more, you can either double the recipe or, if you have the same problem as me with only harvesting a cup at a time, you can freeze a batch until your plant produces another cup.
