Plant Based Pesto

Plant Pesto is a staple for me as its tasty, versatile and packed full of nutrients.

You can have this on crackers or stirred through your pasta . Very simple and quick to make. You also don't need a high powered blender for this one.

Ingredients:

1 cup of fresh basil

1 cup of rocket or baby spinach

½ cup cashews

2 tbs nutritional yeast

juice of ½ lemon

1 clove garlic

pinch of salt if desired

2 tb olive oil

You may also add chilli if you like a spicy pesto

Method: Blend all up until desired consistency
