Preparation

Combine all ingredients in a food processor; process until smooth.

Notes: Yield: 3/4 cup (serving size: 2 tablespoons)

Really very good - especially for a light pesto
for some reason just "good" right after I made it, but then "excellent" after freezing and re-thawing. Used it on shrimp for skewered shrimp with pesto and it was just delicious.
