Detox pesto sauce: Your new favorite recipe
Difficulty: easy.
Servings: Can be used up to 4 or 5 days later.
Preparation time: 10 -15 minutes.
Ingredients:
· 115 g of kale or spinach or basil.
· 1/4 cup of walnuts (30 g) or pine nuts.
· 1/4 cup nutritional yeast or beer (4 tablespoons).
· 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil (4 tablespoons).
· 1 teaspoon of Detox Olettie.
· 1–2 tablespoons of water.
· 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
· 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper.
· 2 cloves of garlic.
Directions:
1. Cook the kale or spinach steamed or in water for about 5 minutes, drain.
2. Put all the ingredients in a blender or in a food processor and whisk until well integrated. The amount of oil can vary depending on how thick we want the pesto. We recommend to add a little water so it doesn’t have as much fat, but it is richer if only oil is used and it also lasts longer.
3. You can store it in the fridge in an airtight container for 4-5 days.
