| Tarragon Pesto |
 |  |
 | Tarragon makes an aromatic and versatile pesto. I have chosen to just simply serve it with some seared Tuna steaks tonight which I will cook blue, however, you can add a little cream to it and serve the sauce over fresh pasta. Another great way to use Tarragon pesto is to tuck a small amount under the skin of some chicken breasts and bake them or make a Tarragon dressing for a Chicken Salad. |

1/2 cup fresh tarragon leaves
1-11/2 cups fresh parsley leaves
