• 1/4 cup shelled walnuts
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan

Notes

If serving with pasta, I like to add a little bit of the hot pasta water and mix it into the pesto to thin it out just a little bit.

This spinach walnut pesto sauce will coat approximately one pound of pasta.
