Free pesto alert with the carrots!
Carrots are back! 🥕 Organic carrots locally grown taste like a carrot! But did you know you can make a simple pesto using the leafy tops?
Make sure you wash and remove any dirt from your carrot tops and add the following to a food processor.
🥕 A bunch of Carrot tops (and stalks)
🥕 50G of sunflower seeds (you can also use cashew nuts, pine nuts or pumpkin seeds, whatever you have in the cupboard)
🥕 1 garlic clove crushed
🥕 3 TBSP olive oil
🥕 1 organic lemon juiced
🥕 Pinch of salt
Blitz in a food processor and tweak, salt, lemon and garlic to taste. I will be stirring pesto through my pasta tonight. As it makes more than I need, I freeze it in ice cube trays and chuck it in mid week meals.
Enjoy!
