Rocket Pesto




OH MY GOD.

You know I love pesto? I might have mentioned it like once before.

Well, I kind of stumbled upon a way to make it even better. Pepperier and lovelier and smoother. This makes an incredible pasta/pesto lunch. And honestly, it couldn’t be easier to make, like before, it is about prepping the ingredients briefly and then throwing it all in a food processor.  One trick I learned was to pour oil over the top of the pesto to make it “keep” longer.

I currently have a little pot of this in my fridge (emergency pesto!) and I can’t see that changing in the future.  I find it so useful for quick dinners and lunches – cook some pasta, stir through some pesto when the pasta is drained and still hot, sprinkle over some pine nuts and chilli flakes. I also love throwing some peas in there. Perfect!

Again, this is taken from the series “Nexus 5: My DSLR got stolen” so I am showcasing some quality phone pictures.
