Farfalle in Basil Pesto Sauce - Homemade

This is the second pasta recipe for the blogging marathon that I have made at home and enjoyed making it. When this was kept to dry on the table, my hubby asked me did you make this at home when I said yes he could not believe till after dinner I continued making some more.

When I served the pasta with Basil Pesto sauce to my beta he enjoyed having it and cleaned his plate. We had this for our lunch.

Sending this to Mir, who is hosting my Kid's Delight, themed on "Pizzas, Pastas n Noodles".
