All the green goodness pesto recipe

Simple and deliciously fresh green pesto spaghetti

Let's be honest, who doesn't love a good pesto?

This leafy green pesto is a wonderful way of packing in antioxidants, vitamins and minerals. I have made this pesto dairy free, but please feel free to sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on when serving if desired!

Ingredients

Pesto spaghetti

Let's be honest, who doesn't love a good pesto? This leafy green pesto is a wonderful way of packing in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. I have made this pesto dairy free, but please feel free to sprinkle some Parmesan cheese on when serving if desired!

Ingredients
Large handful of spinach
Large handful of rocket
50g ground almonds

Small handful of fresh parsley and basil
150ml olive oil
Juice of ½ lemon
2 garlic cloves
Pinch of sea salt
Black pepper

Method
Add all the ingredients to a blender.
Blitz until a delicious smooth green consistency is created.
Taste and adjust seasoning to preference.
Cook spaghetti/pasta according to the cooking instructions on the packet.
Once cooked, drain pasta and stir through pesto. Serve in a bowl with a sprinkle of chilli flakes.

Tip: Any leftovers keep well in the fridge for a few days. Serve with your scrambled eggs. Pesto eggs make for a mouth watering nutrient-rich breakfast option.
