If there is one recipe I would urge everyone to try, this is it. It is quick and extremely easy to make, and everyone who tries it loves it.

Ingredients:
  • 1 7-ounce can of mild green chiles. Buy this at the Mexican food aisle. Be sure to get mild ones
  • 1 cup fresh basil, packed
  • 1/2 cup pine nuts (you can also substitute Macadamia nuts)
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup water
  • Instructions:
    1. Blend all ingredients in a food processor until chunky smooth.
    2. To serve, toss with angel hair pasta. I garnished with cherry tomatoes, halved.
