More Basil Pasta

1 bunch basil
1/2 C. milk
1/4 cup peeled, sliced almonds
3 Tb. Parmesan, freshly grated
Pinch of salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
3 Tb. ricotta cheese
2 Tb. butter, melted
1 lb pasta
2 cloves garlic

In a blender, combine the basil, Parmesan, milk, garlic, and almonds, salt, and pepper and blend until well-combined.  In a separate bowl, stir together the ricotta and melted butter. Add the basil mixture to the bowl and gently fold the sauce together.   Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add your pasta and cook until al dente.   Drain the pasta and mix it with the basil sauce while the pasta is still warm. Top with grated Parmesan, if you'd like, and serve warm.  Recipe
