CAPRESE SALAD WITH WALNUT PESTO
Simple, but elegant side dish. Goes good with Simple Shrimp Cakes. The first 6 ingredients are for the Olive Oil & Walnut Pesto. Two cups of fresh basil leaves are needed (don't know why "0" comes through), in addition to chopped walnuts, grated parmesan, olive oil, lemon juice and chopped garlic.
