Thanks everyone for all the advice you gave me on my very sad garden this year! It’s starting to perk up some. The only plants that are completely thriving are my basil plants! I have so much basil, I wasn’t sure what exactly to make with it all. So I gave a shout out to my girlfriends and they sent over their favorite recipes with fresh basil! I can wait to try out some new recipes! Click the link above each picture to be taken to the recipes or simply pin the 1st pic to your recipe boards for easy access!
