    16 Servings

Ingredients

  • 6 1/2 ounces Nut Milk Pulp
  • 1/2 cup Olive Oil
  • 12 cloves Garlic, peeled
  • 2 1/2 cups Spinach
  • 2 1/2 cups Fresh Basil
  • 1/3 Lemon, juiced
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste

Directions

  1. Simmer garlic in oil for about 15 minutes, ensuring heat is very low.
  2. Add all the ingredients except oil, into a blender/food processor and gradually add the oil until the desired consistency is achieved. 
  3. If you feel as though you are missing the flavor of parmesan found in traditional pesto, substitute it for 3-4 tablespoons of nutritional yeast for a vegan version.
