VEGAN BASIL + ARUGULA PESTO ✨ Absolutely nothing screams spring to me more than a fresh basil pesto ? I love adding arugula to this for some added greens and the delicious pepper flavor, and I always swap pine nuts for pumpkin or sunflower seeds to make this recipe WAY more budget friendly ?? Perfect for pasta, sandwiches and spreads and SO easy to whip up ✨.
.
To make (about 1 cup) ??:
In a blender or food processor, blend together 1 cup of basil, 1 handful of arugula, 1/3 cup nutritional yeast, 3 small cloves of garlic, a healthy pinch of salt, 1/3 cup of pumpkin seeds, the juice of 1 lemon, 2 tbsp of olive oil and 2 tbsp of water (plus more if needed). Enjoy! ?
