Hemp Pesto

Hemp Pesto
makes 1/2 c.

-2 c. basil, loosely packed
-1/2 c. hemp seeds
-3 cloves garlic
-sprig parsley
-1/8 c. olive oil (OR half avocado)
-juice of 1/2 lemon
-1/8 tsp. salt

Mix all ingredients together in a food processor or high-powered blender until smooth. That's it. I prefer to use a 1/2 avocado instead of the olive oil, but I didn't have one today.

This recipe would work excellently with kelp noodles or zucchini pasta. It also makes a good salad dressing if you add olive oil, lemon juice, or water. Hemp seeds are the best, I use them so much.
