PURPLE BASIL PESTO
While stalking the web for a recipe to use my bushels of purple basil, I came across this wonderful recipe. Please tell me how you make it your own! The Farmgirl Fare site where I found the recips does state "Except for the fact that purple basil isn't as pretty as the green and does make a rather oddly colored pesto, I would probably quit growing the green stuff altogether. Mixing a few green leaves into the pesto does help brighten it up a bit."
