¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons pine nuts (or toasted almonds)
2 cloves garlic

½ teaspoon lemon juice

For the Pasta:
12 oz farfalle pasta
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 ball burrata cheese

Directions:
Cook farfalle pasta according to package instructions. Drain, reserving ½ cup of pasta water.
While the pasta is cooking, combine basil, Parmesan, pine nuts (or toasted almonds), garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper in a food processor or
blender. Blend until smooth, adding more olive oil if needed to reach desired consistency.
Toss the cooked pasta with the pesto sauce, adding reserved pasta water a little at a time to help coat the pasta evenly.
