Summer Pesto

Summer Pesto

This pesto is great tossed with grilled veggies and pasta. Use it as a savory spread on sandwiches too.

 

INGREDIENTS

3 cups Basil leaves, fresh

2 cups Cilantro, fresh

1/4 cup Walnuts, raw, shelled

1/8 cup Parmesan Cheese, fresh*

2 cloves Garlic

1/3 cup Olive oil

 

PREPARATION

In a food processor, add the basil, cilantro, walnuts, Parmesan, and garlic and process until smooth. While blender is still running, slowly add in the oil.

*Note: Many pre-grated, processed cheeses contain added gluten. Use fresh cheese if you are trying to cook gluten-free. Fresh always tastes better too!
