Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 cups (packed) carrot tops ((or carrot greens. Tough stems removed, leaves chopped coarsely))
  • ¼ cup pistachio nuts
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • ½ to 1 tsp ground cumin ((start out with 1/2 tsp and add more if you want))
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice ((approx 1 large lemon))
  • Salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 2 tablespoons vegan parmesan cheese

Instruction

  • Place all the ingredients except the oil in a food processor. If using nutritional yeast or parmesan, add them at this time. Don't add both--use one or the other.
  • With the blade running, drizzle in the olive oil through the feed tube. Make sure you have enough salt and pepper in there before you scrape the pesto out of the bowl.
