Green Sauce

This is kind of a fun recipe for a fake pesto-like white-based sauce. "Green Sauce" was the name given by the BHG Gold Anniversary Cookbook, so you can't blame me for that (particular) lack of creativity.

Green Sauce
2 TBSP basil leaves
2 TBSP parsley flakes
1/4 cup soft butter or margarine
1 8-oz package creem cheese, softened
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp pepper
2/3 cup boiling water

Combine the basil, parsley, and butter. Blend in the cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, oil, garlic, and pepper. Stir in the boiling water and blend well. Serve over pasta.
