I love basil pesto! Can't get enough of it! And Ooooo marinated mozzarella balls....absolutely delish. Which one of these recipes will you be making?
Basil repels many different insects. I used to grow basil, chocolate mint, oregano, and peppermint. Growing herbs is fun.
We've never eaten Pesto until we hosted an exchange student from Italy. I had to buy it for him weekly! Hubby and I decided to try it, and wow...we loved it!

That is awesome!
I love basil season! I make big batches of pesto, freeze it in silicone ice cube molds, then once frozen, vacuum seal and pop back into freezer. I literally used the last frozen cube from last summer a week before I harvested this years basil. I use Ina Garten's recipe, which is basically just like yours - the only difference is quantity and she uses half walnuts and half pine nuts. I cannot wait to try the marinated mozzarella pearls! Thanks for the recipes!
I love mozzarella balls with tomatoes. This recipe looks delicious.
Thanks so much for showing us how to make pesto❤

Have you tried pesto on a BLT sandwich? Sooooooo good!!! I made a ravioli dish last night and put pesto in the alfredo sauce. Pesto elevates everthing.

Hi Renee! These 2 recipes sound great, thank you! Where did you get your wooden spice rack that sits on your counter top? That is the perfect height and size of what I have been looking for
Do you have a recipe for sun-dried tomato pasta sauce?
Can't wait to try those garlic mozzarella balls! And I have a bunch of basil growing out on my back porch so I'm definitely giving that pesto a try too! 😋 I love how your pronunciation of oil shifts from oil from a southerner to oil from a northerner. I'm a northerner (NE Indiana) so it's pronounced oy-yul up here. ❤😂

My mama is from London KY so I have a touch of southern blood in my northern self. 😂 All her people still live in Laurel County.
I recently found your channel and have gone crazy for your recipes! I can't wait to make the mozzarella balls and I've already made (and we loved!) the Chicken Morango and the Spicy Green Beans. Tonight we make Chicken Galadriel. I'm currently in treatment for cancer, and your recipes have been lifesavers as they are easy to make and delicious! Hopefully, you'll make an Everyday Meals Part 2 in the future!

You will LOVE Chicken Galadriel! It's our all-time favorite meal and has been for 20+ years :). Part 2....perhaps! 😊
Hi I never knew there were Mozzarella Pearls! Looks like a yummy recipe. Those Mozza Pearls look more tasty than eating Mozzarells String Cheese Sticks which are dry. Seems like a good snack alternative. Thank you

They are! So much better and it's fresh mozzarella too.
What kind of oil is with the tomatoes.
I planted basil because of you & mine is looking beautiful. Thanks for the recipes. Is there a proper way to harvest your basil? Guess I’ll have to google it! 😂
@WELCOMETOMYCURLS

Yay! Yes....there is a correct way. Hard to explain here....but count 3 leave stems up then cut. Don't trim from the very bottom. You can google and find a quick video that will show you exactly.

I’m wondering how long the marinated motza balls will keep in the fridge?

My guess is a week at most. We usually have them devoured within a days 😊
How long do you marinade the mozzarella balls before eating? I need to make that!
