Dry roast any combination or even just one of the above:
Walnuts
Pinenuts
Raw pumpkin seeds
Whatever nut/seed you use, you want to end up with around 1/4cup
In a measuring cup, add:
1 minced clove of garlic
Juice of half a lemon
2-3 shakes of sea salt
2/3 cup - 1 cup loosely packed fresh basil leaves
1/4 roasted nuts/seeds from above
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
Handblend the above together. If the pesto is too sticky, drizzle in a bit more olive oil. If it's too oily, try adding more basil or nuts.
That's IT.
This is very good when tossed with:
Fresh pasta
Roasted Spaghetti Squash
Steamed potatoes
White kidney beans
