Hemp Seed Pesto
Author: Amelia Winslow
Serves: 2 cups
- 2 small cloves garlic
- ¾ cup hemp seeds
- 5 cups packed greens (I used cilantro and spinach - but use any combination of leafy greens and herbs that you like)
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Juice of 1 lemon
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¾ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp pepper
- 2 -4 Tbsp water
- Place garlic cloves in a food processor and pulse a few times to finely chop.
- Add hemp seeds and half the greens and whirl until greens are mostly chopped. Scrape down the sides, add remaining greens and blend once again.
- When greens are mostly chopped, add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. Add water as needed to achieve a sauce-like consistency.
- Taste for seasonings and add more salt, pepper or lemon as needed.
- Toss with hot pasta, spread on pizza, add to wraps and sandwiches or use as a dip for veggies.
