1,2,3...Pesto!!!!!!

Hi,
I had no time to blog last night. I had to get ready for my track meet. But I took a picture!!
The fam was having kebobs last night. I didn't reallly want to eat that. So I made pasta for me-self. I was originally just gonna put some butter on it and lots of cheese, but I then saw that we had in our cupbord...
PESTO!!!!!! I <3 pesto. So I decide to make fettucinni and pesto. It was delicious.
Here's how I simply made it.

You will need:
- Fettucinni (will work with any pasta though)
- Pesto from a jar.
- Large pot
- Strainer or colander.

#1: Fill large pot with water. Bring to a boil.
#2: Once water is boiling drop the pasta in. Best way is to hold pasta in clump in pot and let go, so it all evens out.
#3: Cook pasta. start tasting the pasta after 5 min. (I like mine soft but chewy through the center. In Italy they call this al dente, meaning: to the tooth.)
#4: Strain the pasta in a colander or strainer. Do not rinse the pasta.
#5: Once strained, pour in and stir the pesto.
#6: Viola!! It is done and tasty!!!!
