to taste Salt
to taste Salt and Pepper
1/2 cup Olive Oil
1 pound Farfalle Pasta

Steps:

SPINACH BASIL PESTO | ALLRECIPES



Spinach Basil Pesto | Allrecipes image

This sauce is perfect for freezing in an ice cube tray. I just pop out a couple of cubes from the freezer and add to a pasta dish for a quick and easy meal. The Parmesan cheese can be omitted and added after thawing. Pour any pesto you aren't using immediately into an ice cube tray, cover with plastic wrap, and store in freezer.
