No-oil pesto
Description
If you're cutting out refined foods, that includes olive oil! Although it can seem strange cooking without oil at first, it gets easier - and your tastebuds will come alive. To make a completely whole foods pesto, I use some macadamia nuts to add creaminess.
Ingredients
- 100g macadamia nuts
- 150g cashew nuts
- A large colander full of fresh basil and parsley
- A sprinkling of onion granules
- 1 clove crushed garlic
Directions
- Put macadamias in a processor and process until they are creamy - it won't take long
- Add the remaining ingredients and process or pulse until you get the texture you prefer
- Some people find they don't need to add any salt to this recipe, some might like to add a squeeze of lemon juice or some sun-dried tomatoes.
- Serve with hot pasta!
