-          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.
