Instructions
- All ingredients ready? Let's begin!
- Place the herbs, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, nutritional yeast, and salt in a high-speed blender.
- Process until the pesto is either chunky or very smooth, depending on what texture you prefer.
- Scrape down the sides of the blender jar periodically with a silicon spatula to make sure everything gets processed.
- Check the consistency. If the pesto is too thick, add a little purified water one tablespoon at a time until it thins just enough to your liking.
- Store the pesto in a sealed container in the refrigerator for a few days.
