Walnut Basil Parsley Pesto

Since I didn’t have pine nuts on hand, I used walnuts instead. This delicious, easy spread was perfect for tossing with pasta and serving for a light summer supper.

Ingredients:

  • ½ cup packed fresh parsley leaves
  • ½ cup packed fresh basil leaves
  • ¼ cup walnuts
  • 4 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large garlic clove
  • 1 pinch kosher salt
  • ¼ cup good quality olive oil

Preparation:

Add the basil, parsley, walnuts, Parmesan and garlic to a food processor and pulse until a fine paste forms. Then add the salt and pulse again, briefly. With the processor on low pour the olive oil in a steady stream into the mixture until everything is just combined. Serve!
