Steps:
- Place half the spinach in a food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped. Add remaining spinach and pulse to chop. Add 1/2 cup pine nuts, garlic, Parmesan, lemon zest and juice, salt, and pepper to the processor and puree.
- With the motor running, slowly add the olive oil in a steady stream. Transfer pesto to a large bowl. If making in advance, cover pesto with light coating of olive oil and cover with plastic. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Cook pasta in a large pot of salted water until al dente, about 6-8 minutes, or according to package instructions. Drain pasta and immediately toss with pesto.
- Serve pasta garnished with remaining pine nuts, grated Parmesan, and a drizzle of olive oil.

[email protected]This dish was a total disaster. The pesto was watery and the fusilli was undercooked. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

[email protected]I'm not sure what went wrong, but my pesto turned out really bitter. I think I must have used too much arugula.
