PAUL'S FAVORITE SPINACH-WALNUT PESTO
I got this recipe from my brother-in-law - - it is his signature dish. I know he got the original recipe from a cookbook, but I do not know the name of the book. The pesto has an intense green color and a pleasingly bold flavor. Serve over thin to regular spaghetti noodles. Also, this pesto freezes very well.

FUSILLI WITH SPINACH WALNUT PESTO
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to boil for pasta.
- Pulse the spinach, basil, walnuts, garlic, and salt in a food processor. Pour in 1 1/2 cups of the olive oil in a slow, steady stream. Process to make a smooth paste, stopping occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Pour the fusilli into the boiling water, and cook until al dente. Scrape half of the pesto into a large skillet, and add 1 cup pasta water (no need to heat the sauce). Use a spider to drain the pasta and transfer to the skillet. Toss to coat the pasta with the pesto. Drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Toss with the grated cheese and serve.
- notes
- You can freeze the remaining half of the pesto for future use. Just pack it into a plastic container and pour a thin film of olive oil over the top. Thaw in refrigerator before using. Or you can cut the recipe in half, if you just want enough for 1 pound of pasta.

- 3. Add the walnuts, garlic, oil and 80ml (⅓ cup) water to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Next add the spinach and salt, and blend until smooth (if the mixture is too thick, add another splash of water). Pour the pesto into a bowl and stir through the lemon zest and half the lemon juice.
