Zesty Basil Butter

Okay this basil butter is going to up your food game in so many ways. You can toss this on bread with a little minced garlic and throw in the oven to make garlic bread, you can toss pasta in it (my preferred method), you can spread it on your protein of choice to grill it. So much room for activities!!
