Lemon Basil Pesto Recipe
Category: Vegetarian diet recipes
Notes:
Great for sandwiches, a spread on any protein, in soup…. let the imagination go….
My boyfriend thought we were in a restaurant when I made this spread for our chicken sandwich. YUM.
This is a pretty traditional recipe, but I just thought it needed some zing…. the lemony kind.
Servings: 4-8
Ingredients:
1 cup stuffed of fresh basil leaves
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
4-6 walnut halves
1-2 garlic cloves chopped
juice of half a lemon
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Combine all ingredients in a mini food processor or blender (which I use) and blend until well mixed. Store extra in fridge in a glass jar or glass container.
