Ingredients
- 2/3 cup roasted unsalted macadamia nuts
- 1 cup packed fresh basil
- 1/3 cup grated parmesan
- 1/3 cup avocado or extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
- Place macadamia nuts in blender cup; pulse just until nuts have broken down into a meal-like consistency. Don't overprocess because you'll process again with the rest of the ingredients.
- Add in fresh basil, parmesan, oil, minced garlic, and salt; pulse until ingredients have combined and no big pieces of basil remain.
- Transfer to 8oz jar and store in fridge, about 2 weeks.
- Use on pasta, pizza, sandwiches and more!
Notes
- Some of my favorite jars to use for storing are weck jars.
