Just as tasty as the full fat variety, you'll never miss it! My daughter is a pesto freak, we make this a lot.
1 1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
2-5 cloves peeled garlic, depending on how garlic-ky you like it
1/4 cup pine nuts or walnuts
1/4 cup grated Parmesan (that stuff in a can will not cut it here)
2 Tbsp. olive oil (good stuff if you've got it, but I've even used canola in a pinch, so don't sweat it)
pinch sugar (optional)
Blend everything but the juice and oil in a food processor of blender; slowly drizzle in juice then oil, pureeing until you reach your desired consistency.
