OMG Dairy-Free Pesto

May 2, 2018Alyssa B

This one-hit wonder makes the creamiest, most luxurious pesto. I love it with gluten-free pasta like lentil or chic pea pasta. It also acts as a sandwich spread, dip, marinade or fish topper and is a nutritional powerhouse loaded with antioxidants, protein, healthy fats and is a true beauty food. So get blending and start adding to your fave foods. Double the recipe (trust me) and store in a glass jar in the fridge for up to a week. YUM

• 1 bunch basil, thick stems removed. Thinner ones are fine.
• 1/2 cup nutritional yeast
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1/3 cup raw walnuts
• Juice of a whole lemon
• Salt and Pepper to taste

Add all ingredients to high powered blender or food processor.

Blend till smooth.

You might need to add a little water to smooth it out and make it thinner.

I am passionate about life and living it to the fullest. A cliche, I know. But we only have this life to live. That is it. So shouldn’t we make it the best it can be? And that means something different to everyone. For me it’s about being fuelled by my passions and having the energy to do it all. Because I believe the modern woman can have it all.
