One of my favorite things to do with Pesto is make a big bowl of mixed veggies. Toss them in a grill basket and grill until there is some char on them. Cook pasta, toss with pesto, top with veggies and then nutritional yeast. Yummy! I made this pesto yesterday and froze most of it but kept enough to have this very dish for dinner tonight. I typically use zucchini, yellow squash, sweet onion, mushrooms, cherry tomatoes and whatever else is in the frig. Let's make some pesto!
- 3 cups packed basil
- 1/2 cup walnut pieces
- 1 heaping tablespoon chopped garlic
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- water to thin (thin to the consistency you like)
Add all ingredients to a food processor.
Blend until it's totally mixed together. Add water as needed to get the consistency you enjoy.
I like to freeze it in ice cube trays. Once frozen pop out of the tray and store cubes in a freezer bag. I normally take out 3 cubes for 2 servings.
