I have been on a mission to find a vegan pesto recipe that actually tasted good. I came across one that I had to modify for our diets, but it was a clear winner! We put it on pizza, pasta, meat, use it as a dip, etc. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
-1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
-Juice from 1/2 a lemon- 1/2 an onion (or 4 cloves garlic), chopped and lightly sauteed
- 1/2 cup walnuts (or cashews)
-1 cup whole fresh basil leaves (or a few bunches of basil)
-Salt and pepper to taste
-Optional: 1/4 cup pine nuts for creamier pesto (I've never done this, so I can't give my opinion on how it changes the flavor)
Blend all ingredients in a blender or food processor. Enjoy the pure goodness!
