Cilantro Lime Pesto (all measurements are approximate)
- 2 bunches of cilantro - washed and big stems removed
- juice of 2 limes
- about 1/3 cup of walnuts
- about 1/2 cup of sunflower seeds
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- fresh ground sea salt & fresh ground pepper
- olive oil
- pulse together walnuts, sunflower seeds, garlic, lime juice in food processor, scraping down as needed
- add cilantro and continue to pulse until everything is all smooshed together and well combined
- with food processor running pour in olive oil until desired consistency
I have added chopped fresh tomatoes, (tofutti) cream cheese and (tofutti) sour cream and used it on pasta (YUM) and tonight I added probably equal parts mayo and pesto with juice of a lime as salad dressing. We had the pesto mixed in to steamed rice. We have also used it as dip with tortilla chips.
