Ingredients

2 cups Arugula leaves

1/8 cup Pine nuts, toasted

In blender or food processor place arugula, garlic and cheese and blend until smooth. Slowly add olive oil and nuts. Blend until desired consistency.

Spread on a pizza crust, top with cheddar cheese, onions and fresh tomato slices. Or, simply toss with cooked pasta.

This is a great alternative from your garden to basil, especially early in the season!
