as you may (or may not know), i am garlic free and have to get creative with some of my favorite things that have garlic in them-
today i tried a super simple pesto
1 cup pine nuts, lightly toasted on the stove in a dry skillet
2 cups fresh basil leaves
2 T olive oil (i did use garlic olive oil as garlic is not fat soluble)
1/4 cup canola (or neutral) oil
1/2 fresh lemon, squeezed!
salt and pepper
blend/food process it all together
i have an immersion blender so i pulsed with a little oil first, then added the rest of the oil. was a bit thick so i added some water and then pulsed again.
stay tuned for a review!
