Recipe: Make your own pesto

If I only knew how easy pesto was to make I don't think I would've ever bought it.  My husband let me get out of the house so I decided to walk around Trader Joes.  There's just something I love about that place.  They have great prices on basic items and it just has a great vibe to it.  Well I walked-out with some Organic Spinach, Bottle of Red Wine Vinegar and a Basil Plant (to make my pesto) for $6.77.

Once I got home I decided to get out all the ingredients to make the pesto: 

1 cup Almonds (or whatever nuts you have)

1 1/2 cups Parmesan Cheese

Garlic (2-3 minced cloves)

Pinch of Salt

3 cups Basil 

1 cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Blend the first five ingredients in a food processor**.  Once they are coarsely chopped slowly add olive oil until smooth. Pesto goes a long way so use some for dinner and freeze the rest.

Here is a Vlog of me doing just that!  Homemade Pesto in 4 minutes and 36 seconds! :)

**If you do not own a Food Processor and want one check out the sales on Amazon.  This has to be my #1 Kitchen tool.  

I am going to try and plant the rest in a pot just to see if it will grow back.  Probably unlikely?  I'm not an expert on growing herbs so any tips you have would be great.

Labor Day Thrift Store Sales! 40-50% off

Value Village: All clothing, shoes, accessories and items tagged bed & bath 50% off

I would say my preference would be the Goodwill, but I have found some great stuff at both.  If you are looking for inspiration on things you can find at Thrift Stores, check out some of my thrifty finds.  

Couple Tips:  

• Go early if you can
• Go to your area of need first, then look around
• Bring a snack.  One thing about Thrift Stores is sometimes you need to dig in order to find the jewel
• Look under, over and around
• These sales are very crowded, so if you bring your kids come prepared for long lines
• Have Fun!
