Made with fresh basil from the garden, the basil pesto sauce is so fresh and flavorful, much better than the store-bought one. It is super-easy and simple to make pesto sauce at home. Grab some basil, add pine nuts, garlic, cheese, blend a few times in a food processor; then add some olive oil, blend a few more times. That's all.

You can toss some pesto sauce with pasta, a quick weekday pasta dinner is ready. You can also add pesto sauce onto bread as a side dish or snack.
