Chunky Pesto

As promised here is my pesto recipe.

Ingredients:
1 c. Basil Leaves
1/2 c. Raw organic almonds
1/3 c. Extra virgin olive oil
1 Large garlic clove, roughly chopped
1/2 t. Celtic sea salt (or Real Salt)

Combine in a food processor or blender and mix until desired consistency is reached.
Enjoy on bread, rice, or with some pasta.


I had mine on bread with tomatoes so I made it a tad on the chunky side. For a smoother consistency continue blending.

Pesto Rice and Salads

Hmm...Pesto.
The other day while I was at Costco I sampled a yummy pesto rice and thought I would try to recreate it my own way.


Turned out great.
Basmati rice, pesto, pees, and some raw zucchini.


Yum!
I couldn't get enough of this dish and can't wait to make more tomorrow. I knew making 3 cups of rice was a good idea.


On the side we had this yummy salad.
Doesn't it look so fresh?
I love eating my salads right after I wash it, that way the leaves are coated with cold water.
I close my eyes and imagine I am in a garden.

For homemade pesto stick around. See you soon.
