Oil-Free Pesto
It's better for you than regular pesto because it doesn't have any oil in it. It tastes great on pasta, sandwiches, or as a dip because it has fresh basil and creamy cashews in it. Ingredients: 2 cups fresh basil leaves 1/4 cup raw cashews 2 cloves garlic 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1/4 teaspoon salt 2-4 tablespoons water as needed Instructions: In a food processor, combine basil leaves, cashews, garlic, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, and salt Blend until the mixture becomes coarse and crumbly While the processor is running, gradually add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until desired consistency is reached Continue blending until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary
