Hey Steve thanks. I've done some research and have found that pesto
is, in fact the way to go with lemo pesto.. however, last night, i
smooshed a bunch up (mortar and pestal style) with a spoon on my
cutting board and put it in a white wine, garlic olive oil marinade for
some shimp i planned to bbq and it came out fabulously! woo hoo.
