In honor of 420, what better way to celebrate than to make some hemp pesto! Slather it on everything from toast to pizza, pasta to veggies. Enjoy my vegan hemp pesto recipe today and every day!
- 1/2 cup hemp seeds
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 2-3 cloves garlic
- 3 tablespoons dried basil
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
- salt and pepper to taste
Put hemp seeds, spinach and garlic cloves in a food processor. Mix until ingredients are roughly chopped.
While the food processor is still running, slowly add olive oil in a thin stream and process until fully incorporated and smooth.
Season with salt and pepper. Add lemon juice and nutritional yeast and mix until well combined. Add a bit more of garlic, lemon juice and/or nutritional yeast until you’re happy with the taste and consistency.
