- Great use for those summer greens!
Ingredients:
3 Cups total basil leaves and other greens (kale, spinach, sweet potato leaves, etc. work well)
¾ tsp The Tasteful Olive’s Himalayan Pink Sea Salt (fine grind)
2 large cloves of garlic
¾ Cup pre-soaked, drained walnuts*
1/3 Cup The Tasteful Olive’s Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Robust works best)
Optional: 2-3 Tbs Hemphearts
In a food processor or powerful blender, place all ingredients (except oil), and pulse until finely chopped. After chopped, pour olive oil in a medium stream while blending ingredients to desired creaminess. Serve as a pasta or pizza sauce, an appetizer dip, or spread on sandwiches or Italian roll ups.
*Health Tip: To obtain every nutrient available in walnuts, just soak them in filtered water the night before, and then drain.
