We picked the basil from our herb garden. After washing them, we separated the leaves from the stems. We peeled and chopped garlic and blended it all together with olive oil, salt and parmesan cheese. We dressed some bowtie pasta with our pesto sauce and were left with an empty bowl. Our Italian residents were very familiar with this preparation, but many residents had never eaten basil pesto before. One resident comented that it was very "green," but delicious!
