Instructions
  1. Wash arugula, add to a salad spinner, and spin to remove excess water. Chop arugula and add 2 cups packed to the bowl of a food processor.

  3. Process all ingredients until a paste forms as pictured.
  4. Note - use good quality olive oil and Parmesan cheese for a more flavorful pesto.
  5. Store unused pesto in a container with a tight fitting lid that just fits it, float a bit of olive oil on top to prevent browning, and refrigerate.
