This pesto is must try especially if you have any leftover green leaves, carrot tops, celery leaves, broccoli leaves or herbs 🌿🌿
you will need:
3 cups mixture of kale (stalks removed), leaves, herbs
half a cup of nuts, almonds in my pesto ( use parmesan if you wish )
3 small cloves garlic
100 ml olive oil
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt or less
Blanch the kale together with the leaves for 3 minutes.
Ground the nuts using a hand-grinder.
Combine all ingredients and blend.
If you have a tall blender that's perfect.
If you have one of those powerful blender then you don't have to ground the nuts separate.
Alternatively chop the greens by hand and add the rest of the ingredients.
Keep the pesto in a clean jar in the fridge.
Also the pesto can be stored in an ice cube tray and defrosted when needed for sandwich spread, pasta bakes topping or used on home-made pizza 🍕
