Pesto Sauce

2 cups fresh basil leaves, stems removed
3 cloves garlic
1/3 cups pine nuts
1 cup olive oil
1/2 cup parmasan cheese

I usually make this in the blender but using the food processor produced a better result.

Add all ingredients except the cheese in the food processor. Add cheese, salt and pepper to taste.
Add to cooked chicken, or your favorite pasta, in a sandwich.
