Simple Vegan Pesto

Sometimes in this whole plant-based, vegan or generally “free-from” way of eating, you get replicas of classic dishes that will just NEVER compare. Seeing as the original pesto recipe has lots of cheese in it, I would never have thought a vegan one would match up. Well the good news is, I couldn’t have been more wrong on this one!

Vegan pesto is the shiz! No one even notices the difference, so really there’s no excuse to not make this healthy version. Plus it’s so simple that even newbies in the kitchen can whip it up in no time. All it takes is a few ingredients and your average blender!

I eat mine on some toast, or mixed into pasta!! I definitely suggest making triple amounts and storing in the fridge because you will most certainly be going back for more.

Enjoy!
