Easy Pesto - Two Recipes // Oil-Free & Nut Free [Whole Food Plant Based]


Who loves a pesto full of flavor and is very easy to whip together? I do!


Both of these recipes are simple yet will make your taste buds sing.


Beautiful over whole wheat pasta, roasted veggies, pizza, or even as a salad dressing.


You can make either as thick or thin as you'd like by adding in a tiny bit of water at a time.


The perfect way to celebrate summer and use up all the basil you have overgrowing in your garden.

Ingredients: 
 
2 cups packed fresh basil 
¼ cup raw pine nuts 
1 tsp lemon juice 
2-3 garlic cloves 
1 tbsp white miso
1 tbsp nutritional yeast 
2 tbsp of water (add more if you’d like a thinner consistency) 
 
Directions: 
 
Blend together all of the ingredients in a high-speed blender.
 
I prefer our pesto with pine nuts more on the chunky side. 
 
Add more water to thin out the pesto if you desire. 
 
Pour over whole wheat pasta, pizza, roasted veggies, or use a salad dressing.
