Directions
Tos the basil, pine nuts, and garlic into your blender. Add in the olive oil, a splash of lemon juice, and a bit of water to help everything blend smoothly. Don't forget the soy topping—it gives the pesto a nice creamy texture. Blend everything together until it’s nice and smooth. If it feels too thick, just add a little more water or olive oil and blend again. Taste it and adjust the lemon or salt if you like. Then, it’s ready to enjoy!
Serving Suggestions
This pesto pairs wonderfully with pasta, roasted vegetables, or as a spread on sandwiches. You can also use it as a dip for crackers or a topping for grilled tofu.
Food Storage Guide
Store the pesto in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week. To keep it green, drizzle a thin layer of olive oil on top before sealing. It also freezes well for longer storage.
