Traditional Pesto
uses Parmesan cheese. We’ve replaced the cheesy component with nutritional yeast
which has a lovely sharp cheesy flavour, It’s not technically raw, but it’s
great for vegans as a source of B Vitamins. Great stirred through Zucchini Pasta and on crackers (see recipe here http://rawambitiongoddess.blogspot.com.au/2014/02/rawsome-cheesy-buckwheat-hemp-crackers.html)
2 Cups Basil
1 Cup Spinach
½ Cup Walnuts
½ Cup Hemp Seeds
4 cloves garlic
2/3 Cup
Nutritional Yeast
2 tsp Lemon Juice
¼ Cup Olive Oil
Salt to taste
Method:
Place all
ingredients except olive oil in a food processor and pulse till everything is
chopped but a little chunky.
Slowly add the
olive oil, you can adjust this to make it firmer or smoother as desired.
