Roasted Spigarello Pesto
Roasted Spigarello Pesto
I used pumpkin seeds with this recipe, but I’d also like to try it with pine nuts, or walnuts, so use what you love!
Ingredients
- 1 Bunch Spigarello
- 1 Bunch Parsley (or about 3/4 of the bunch)
- 2 tablespoons blood orange juice
- 2 cloves garlic
- Juice of 1/2 a lemon (give or take)
- 3/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 1.5 cups olive oil
- 1.5 cups pumpkin seeds
- 1 tsp salt
- Pepper: To taste
Instructions
- Rub the spigarello in olive oil and roast the leaves with crushed garlic cloves on a baking sheet with parchment paper, at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Just like you’re making kale chips. If you have kale, you can use that instead of spigarello!
- Mix all the ingredients in a food processor.
- Add a little citrus rind on top for color and flavor.
