Summer’s remaining basil harvest can become the makings of delicious pesto to serve on crackers or crusty bread. And it does freeze well too for uses into the fall season and beyond. Easy to make and very nutritious compared to many typical spreads.

I've played with this recipe a lot over the years. I think i've finally nailed it to my taste. I like the flavor spicy and bold, so you may need to adjust it to your taste.

GALA CRABMEAT DIP by Ruby Densmore

So easy, so versatile and so good. If I’m serving this as an appetizer I heat it in the microwave and serve it with various crackers. Or, you can put this as a filling into wonton wrappers or use filo pastry and bake/fry.
