  3. Throw all of your green paste ingredients into food processor.
  4. Make sure you have a smooth looking paste. Do not worry over the smell. It’ll taste good I promise.
  5. Melt the butter on a pan to start working on the cheese sauce.

  7. Add 4 tablespoonful of the green paste and mix well. Add salt, pepper, and basil. Don’t forget to taste.
  8. Add the macaroni and then gently fold it in.
  9. I cut my cheese into boxes (just because I hate washing cheese shredder) then add them to the pan. Fold them in gently.
