Ingredients
- 4 cups kale $1.06, torn leaves
- 1/3 cup olive oil $0.85
- 1 lemon $0.37, fresh
- 1 clove garlic $0.08
- 1/4 cup walnuts $0.30
- 1/3 cup parmesan $0.59
- 1/2 tsp salt $0.02
- black pepper $0.03, freshly cracked
Instructions
- Make sure your kale leaves are washed well, any excess water is drained away, and any hard stems removed. Zest and juice the lemon.
- Add the kale, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 1/2 tsp lemon zest, olive oil, garlic, walnuts, Parmesan, salt, and some freshly cracked pepper to a food processor. Process until the mixture is a fine textured paste. Taste and adjust the salt, pepper, or lemon if desired. If you want a runnier pesto for drizzling, add extra oil, or up to 2 Tbsp water.
Notes
- Optional: Try using roasted garlic instead of fresh for a slightly more mellow flavor!
