easy pesto!! made with nutritional yeast

[Guest guest]

HI all,

 

yesterday, I was stumpted as to what to make, well I went to my food staples

and came up with a great great dinner.

 

you could use fresh ingrediants just use more than

 

for example instead of 3 tablespoons dry use a cup fresh (I'm guessing my

portions so please make it to taste

 

I call it " nutritional pesto "

 

3 tablespoons of dried parsley leaf

3 tablespoons of dried basil leaf

1 teaspoon of dried garlic granules

1/2 cup of slivered almonds

1/2 cup of nutritional yeast

1 cup olive oil

(I used extra virgin and flax oil and safflower oil, because I ran out of

olive oil)

1/2 bag of chopped spinach (previously frozen)

 

blend in the blender until thick creamy and mostly smooth

 

I put this on spiral noodles and threw some pine nuts and the " nutritional

yum yum " (parmeson substitute made from blenderized blanched almonds and

nutrtional yeast)

 

it was so tasty and excellent!!!

 

since I am avoiding tomatoes I will use this as a pizza sauce, too!

 

later, happy eating

ps-I'm storing the left over pesto in the freezer in a covered Ice tray

(since each serving is about a tablespoon)
