Ok …….. I know it sounds crazy but I swear pesto tastes better the slow way, using a pestle and mortar.
2 cloves of garlic chopped
A big handful of basil leaves, chopped (Greek Basil if you can find it)
Organic Greek Basil seeds (so you can grow your own!)
A handful of soaked and dehydrated walnuts
Juice of 1 organic lemon and a little of the zest
5 or 6 twists of black pepper
Sea Salt to taste
4T raw olive oil
Put basil, nuts and garlic into the mortar and grind with the pestle into a chunky consistency.
Add lemon juice, zest and olive oil and and grind some more. Season with sea salt and pepper.
Serve over a salad of cherry tomatoes and baby greens with finely chopped olives.

Awe, Yum!!! I made something like this last summer when my basil was doing sooo good… but I served it over “Zucchini Pasta”, it was Yum-E and easy! I simply took a cheese grater and ran the zucchini over it the long way, creating a very Fettuchini like pasta, it even tasted like pasta!
I think next time tho I’m going to try the tomatoes!!! I LOVE Tomatoes!
This is fantastic!! I’m new to raw so a silly question. When you say the walnuts have been soaked and dehydrated.. how long do you soak them for and how long in the dehydrator. This recipe looks so scrumptious I just want to get it right
The loans seem to be essential for guys, which would like to organize their company. By the way, this is very comfortable to get a term loan.
