YOUR HEALTHY PLATE: Macadamia Parsley Pesto

I found a wonderful site called Rubies and Radishes with lots of wonderful and creative recipes. Here’s one that I especially like. I can see pouring a couple of teaspoons of this magic green elixir over an omelette, or roasted asparagus, or a cup of rotini; or stirring a spoonful into a mug of vegetable soup. If you have basil, parsley, and oregano growing in your garden like I do, then you are practically there.
  • 1 cup flat leaf parsley
  • 2 cups fresh basil
  • 3-4 cloves garlic
  • 1 /2 cup olive oil
  • 1 /4 cup macadamia nuts
  • 2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tsp. fresh oregano
  • 1/4 tsp. sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp. pepper
Combine all ingredients in a food processor or high-speed blender until smooth.
