I have a new friend, and her name is Cuisinart Mini-Prep processor. Here we are on Christmas together:
So far, I’ve made hummus, almond butter, and pesto with my little Mini-Prep. Yum.
This pesto is flavorful and simple to make. For those of you who aren’t veggie fans, it doesn’t taste much like spinach at all!
Spinach and Tomato Pesto
Ingredients:
- 3 c. spinach
- 5 T. olive oil
- 5-6 sundried tomatoes
- 4 cloves garlic, sliced (We like garlic, but you can use less if you’d like!)
- 1/4 c. pepitas (green pumpkin seeds)
- 2 tsp. sea salt
Instructions
In a frying pan, heat 1 T. of the oil over medium heat. Add the spinach and cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted and bright green.
Place spinach and all remaining ingredients in the food processor. Blend until smooth.
Serve over your favorite pasta or fish! May I suggest adding a bit of Parmesan?
Hummus and almond butter recipes are being perfected, but will be shared on the blog shortly!
