Basil Pesto

I love basil and the best way to use a lot of it fast is to make pesto. My kids love noodles and they love using pesto. I made some of this and froze it in small portions for the winter.

My recipe is something like this one:

But my recipe has 5 cloves of garlic and a bit more oil. I add enough to make it a nice consistency, I don't measure it :) I also used toasted almonds because pine nuts are too expensive. 

What do you make with your basil?
