We Bought a Farm: Making Pesto







While I still don't understand gardening much at all, and I'm still fairly lame in the kitchen, I love the challenge of trying to use everything that comes off of our land positively.

We had to harvest a TON of basil this morning. It had gone a little too far and needed to be thinned. Jacob taught me and the kids how to: 

  1. Harvest the basil
  2. Wash the basil
  3. Sort the basil
JB happened to be in town so he grabbed the ingredients to make pesto. Then Jacob took over and made pesto. He turned it into a delicious pesto pizza that was truly some of the best homemade pizza I have ever had.

I love eating our own stuff and learning how to do it!!!
