The farm stand down the street from me sells really great leafy greens.
I just picked up a bag of arugula. I'm not a huge arugula fan in salad but I love love love it in pesto.
I also recently went to my local fruit farm to get peaches and nectarines for canning. They also sell herbs for 60 cents a bunch. A bunch is A BUNCH!
Two huge bowl fulls were 3 bunches total. So for $3.60 I had alotta basil.
It was begging to become pestofied.
Everything needed a good washing (or three) so I used my OXO salad spinnner. I love that thing.
It made a ton of pesto so I put it in these cute containers and popped them in the freezer.
Now I can have a taste of summer, mid winter.
