Image via WikipediaIt's a bit creamier than the Pesto Besto because of all the almonds and pine nuts.
I also added about 2 Tablespoons of olive oil to help keep it from oxidizing so much.
1 Bunch Fresh Basil Chopped ( about 5-8 Tablespoons)
1 cup almonds (soaked for 6 hours or not)
1/2 cup Pine nuts (expensive, but hey live a little!)
3-5 cloves of Garlic mashed with a press
2 or 3 leaves of Chard chopped
1 Tablespoon of Sea Salt
Throw it all in the blender. Have water on hand to pour in when it gets too thick to blend. Helps if you have a blender with a stir stick, otherwise just stop and stir as needed.
I'm going to dry painting this on some sliced zucchini and putting it in the dehydrator for zucchini pesto chips.
Enjoy!
