Try a different kind of pesto by using borage instead of basil. Tastes great with noodles. Use young borage leaves.

2 tablespoons pumpkin seeds
2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic , or more to taste
salt
4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil , plus more as needed

Wash and dry borage leaves. Roast pumpkin seeds in a dry skillet until lightly browned, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove and allow to cool.

Combine borage leaves, roasted pumpkin seeds, Parmesan cheese, garlic, and salt in a food processor. With the food processor running, add olive oil, and process until a smooth paste forms. Transfer to a jar and add more olive oil to cover. Store in the refrigerator.
