Roughly chop the garlic cloves and add them to the bowl of a food processor with the kale or spinach, basil, pine nuts, and Parmesan cheese. Pulse until roughly chopped. While the motor is running, pour the oil slowly through the feed tube until the mixture is smooth. Add salt and pepper and pulse twice to combine. Reserve ½ cup of the pesto for the recipe. The remainder can be reserved to use on pasta, sandwiches or as a salad dressing for tomatoes and avocados. Slice off approximately ¼ of an inch from the top of each tomato (stem side). Reserve.
