Simple Spinach Parmesan Pesto
x
Print Options
Description
With a spinach pesto you can pack all of the antioxidants of 1/2 cup of raw spinach into one 2-tablespoon serving of sauce! The antioxidants have not been removed from the other phytonutrients in the spinach, therefore their absorption is uninterrupted!
The only tool you need for this lovely sauce is a food processor or blender! The pesto keeps for about a week in the fridge.
Ingredients
- 4 cups Raw Fresh Spinach Leaves
- 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1 clove Garlic, Pressed
- ¼ cups Unsalted Pine Nuts
- ¼ cups Shredded Parmesan Cheese
- 2 Tablespoons Water
Preparation
Combine all ingredients in a food processor and mix until a puree is formed. Store in an airtight jar or other container in the refrigerator.
