4 servings
- 1 cup fresh mint leaves, packed
- 1 cup fresh basil leaves, packed
- 2 cloves garlic, peeled
- 3 tbsp pine nuts
- ¼ cup fresh ricotta
- ⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ tsp salt, or to taste
Instructions

Toast the pine nuts in a small dry skillet over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until golden and fragrant, about 2–3 minutes. Watch closely, as they can brown quickly. Transfer immediately to a plate and let cool for 2 minutes.

Combine the mint, basil, garlic, and toasted pine nuts in a food processor. Pulse 8–10 times until the herbs are roughly chopped and the mixture looks coarse and even.
