2 cups (packed) fresh basil leaves (washed and dried)
4 5-6 large cloves garlic
1 cup walnuts
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 cup freshly grated parmesan
1/4 cup freshly grated romano
salt and pepper to taste
Combine basil, garlic and walnuts in a food processor and chop well. Slowly drizzle in olive oil, keeping processor going. Once oil is combined, turn off processor and add cheeses, salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Keeps well in refrigerator for up to a week.
You can also keep the processor running slowly to mix in the cheese.
