Nutrition & Calorie Comments  

Excellent though I used alittle less olive oil and added a pinch of salt. Left it to meld for 24 hours in the fridge. Will definitely make this again as I grew an over abundance of basil!
The recipe itself was wonderful -- we ate it over pasta. But there is no way that this makes 20 reasonably-sized servings, so calculate your calories accordingly.
