Eat Your Greens Pesto

February 28th, 2010 · 1 Comment

This is a great way to eat a lot of green leafy vegetables in one spoonful!

120 g bag of mixed rocket, watercress and spinach leaves or the equivalent amount in loose leaves but don’t use lettuce.

1 clove of garlic

1 oz pumpkin seeds

Juice of 1/2 lemon and the zest of 1 lemon

2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 tsp honey

1/2 tsp salt

Put all the ingredients into a food processor and process. You may have to scrape down the bowl once.

It keeps well for a couple of days in a lidded jar in the fridge. Delicious on oatcakes with hummus, add to soups when serving and use as a dip with crudites ( peppers, cucumbers, celery and carrots cut into strips)
