There are no pictures of just the pesto, since Mike felt that it didn't photograph well by itself. I guess some food just isn't photogenic.
Kim was trying to use up some more spinach, and she also had the basil plant which her mom had given her. The plant was pretty much on its last legs at this time. According to Mike, the basil plant is in the path of the sprinklers, and should be getting water when the sprinklers run. I think the poor plant disagrees, since it was pretty beige when I saw it. We were out of town for a week. When we got back, Mike said that he would water the plant when he was in town, so Kim thought Mike was going to water the plant. For some reason, Mike thought Kim was going to water the plant. The result is that no one was watering that poor basil plant...
It was actually pretty easy to make this recipe. Kim put all of the ingredients (she used pecans instead of almonds, since that is what she had) into the Vitamix and turned it on. She was able to make probably about two cups of sauce, which is enough to coat quite a bit of pasta.
