In a food processor, combine 12-24 fresh basil leaves, 1-2 tablespoons of parmesan cheese, a handful of rock salt, 1/4 cup of pine nuts, and 3-5 cloves of garlic. Blend, combine with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and set aside.
Boil 1/2 to 1 package of angel hair pasta, run under cool water and dump into your large bowl.
Add in the pesto, 1-2 medium tomatos chopped, and the juice of half a lemon. Stir, add more oil to taste. Serve cold.
