Spicy Basil Pesto


Bountiful basil harvest... no problem.. 
make pesto! 

Pesto 
4 c basil
1/4 c oil
1/2 c nuts of choice (I had leftover homemade candied maple spicy walnuts)
2 T garlic
1 lemon
1/2 c parm
salt pepper
1 c cilantro
hot peppper x 1 

process everything all together cleaned trimmed and what not until desired texture


I DO NOT CAN PESTO
(the oil and herb mixture has too low of an acid content to prevent the growth of bacteria) 
but i dont have a problem eating it quick anyway! lol! 
maybe 1-2 weeks in fridge
or 2-3 months stored properly in the freezer.
