Hemp Pesto

Hemp Pesto

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

1/3 cup fresh basil
1/4 cup spinach
3 tablespoons hemp seeds
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic
1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Directions:

Food process all ingredients for a minute until smooth. and that's all, pretty simple.

I spread it across a rustic roll for toasting and sprinkled a few more hemp seed on top for good measure. this would be awesome on pasta or sandwiches for sure.

Because of the basil and spinach in it, this sauce will go bad pretty fast. it's best to eat within a day or two. refrigerate in an airtight container if you plan on storing.
