Farm Fresh Recipes — Basil

In the summer I crave protein loaded light meals. This is one of my favourite lunches; it leaves me energized and ready to be under the hot sun for the rest of the day.

Arugula pesto is a great way to add a peppery zing to your meal. You can use this delicious sauce anywhere you'd use traditional basil pesto - in pasta, on a sandwich, drizzled on a pizza, or as a salad dressing. If you like things really zingy, skip the basil and use all arugula. It's delicious either way!
