Place the nuts, garlic and basil leaves in a food processor and process till finely chopped. Add the rest of the ingredients in and process till desired smoothness. I like it fairly smooth with most of the nuts pulverized and a consistency of peanut butter. Add more extra virgin olive oil if needed. Taste and adjust flavoring for salt and pepper.
Place in a small covered container and refrigerate what you do not use. This will last 3-5 days in the refrigerator depending on how you fresh you like your food
Serve over 1 lb. cooked pasta or individual servings of your choice.
Enjoy!
