Parsley Basil Pesto

Parsley Basil Pesto

This parsley and basil pesto combines two powerhouse herbs to pack a serious punch of flavor.  Toss with pasta, bean or rice salad, even fresh veggies for a quick meal.  Alternately, use in chicken and ricotta calzones, on pizza instead of tomato sauce, or as a quick dipping sauce for anything from grilled shrimp to roast lamb.  Freeze leftovers for use at a later time.

Ingredients

  • ¾ cup parsley leaves
  • ½ cup basil leaves
  • 2 tablespoons grated fresh Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts, toasted
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 clove garlic

Instructions

  1. Combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until finely chopped, scraping down sides of bowl occasionally.
