so, we all know that summer fruits, veggies and herbs are all over the place!
we got a bunch of broccoli in our csa box, and some friends gave us a HUGE haul of basil.
so what did we make?
Broccoli Pesto
recipe found here // modifications made by me
what you need :
*1 large broccoli (around 2 cups)
*couple of stems fresh basil or sage
*1/2 lemon, juice
*1/2 cup hazelnuts (roasted chickpeas if you’re allergic) [we used almonds]
*2 cloves garlic
*1/2 cup olive oil
*2 tbsp water
*salt & pepper
how to do it :
1) Throw all the ingredients in a blender or food processor. Pulse for about a minute. Taste it.
2) Add more olive oil or water if it feels too dry, and salt & pepper according to taste.
Serve with pasta, in a salad, on a sandwich or in a wrap.
this was SO good
