Kale & Walnut Pesto Recipe 2


kale walnut pestoHuge demand for this pesto recipe!

I put the pesto over some zucchini noodles that were topped with sautéed onions, garlic and portobello mushrooms…super delicious!

So here it is:

 

Kale & Walnut Pesto Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice (I just threw in 1 lemon with the peel)
  • 4 cloves of garlic (I’m a big garlic fan)
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp fresh ground pepper
  • 1-2 Tbsp basil or better yet 1 cup fresh basil leaves
  • 4 cups of fresh Kale leaves (well rinsed)
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/4 cup awesome olive oil (can use flax or hemp oil too)

 

Directions:

  • I used my favorite appliance…my Vitamix. You can use any food processor to do it though.
  • Put everything into the Vitamix in the order above and turn it on the variable 4.
  • You’ll need to move it around using the tamper.
  • Blend it up to whatever consistency you’re after!

Hope you enjoy this pesto!

    Hi Shoshana,
    Great to see you and Adam after so long! Great lecture!
    2 questions
    I made the anti-inflammatory shot recipe, how long does it keep and I’m thinking it has to be refrigerated.
    I will be making the kale and walnut pesto but do you cook the zucchini noodles?

    Any help would be appreciated

      Hi Jocelyn,
      Thanks for joining us 🙂
      The shot will stay nutrient dense for a bout a week in the fridge preferably stored in a mason type (glass) jar.
      The zucchini noodles we do raw and they’re delicious!
      Enjoy!
