EASY Dairy Free/ Nut Free Mint Pesto!
Having this homemade fresh pesto prepped in your fridge will be your new favorite thing!
I love it because it adds so much happy to the simplest (boring) of recipes. Because let's be honest, eating clean can lead to a "I'm so over this" mindset if you aren't creative and putting in the effort.
While yes, it takes a little effort (like....93 seconds for this recipe to be exact), I promise you can make clean eating super exciting, yummy and most importantly... satisfying!
Whether it's drizzling this on your leafy greens & veggies, or making your eggs, turkey burgers, or chicken much more zesty.... check out the below ingredients and steps to your personal batch of Dairy Free & Nut Free Mint Pesto.
***Side note: The downfall of pre-made grocery store brands is that they all (or most) contain... DAIRY, NUTS, & INFLAMMATORY OILS. Not to mention a few other ingredients that aren't really that necessary to get a delicious tasting pesto sauce.
Ingredients:
1. Trader Joes (Small) Pack of Organic Mint
2. Trader Joes (Small) Pack of Organic Basil
3. 1/2 Cup of Avocado Oil (Coconut oil works too!)
4. 1/2 Fresh Squeeze Lemon
5. 3 Garlic Cloves
6. Sea Salt to taste
***Remember, you are the recipe MASTER, not me. Add more mint, basil, garlic, oil to taste if you prefer a different balance in flavors. Example: if you want the sauce less thick, add more oil.
Steps:
1. Blend all ingredients until smooth.
2. Drizzle on top, dip, or use in a sauté!
3. ENJOY!
