Notes
- Toasting the pine nuts is optional but adds amazing flavor. You can buy them pre-toasted to save time!
- I make this at least once a week and literally never measure our the ingredients. Once you make it a couple times you'll do it from memory and feel, too! Just remember, go light on the olive oil and lemon juice especially at first -- you can always add more but you can't take away. but the proportions above give you an idea to get started.
