Great alternative to regular pesto! I used a bit of extra tahini in mine and it was really creamy.

Hi Janet!
I have a recipe to use it with farro (whole grain) coming up in a couple days. You can also add it to other dip bases or hummus as a flavoring (to use more as a dressing, in a bowl, or to dip veggies in). Or you could thin it down to use on its own as the dip, or to toss into a bunch of vegetables to roast them. Hope this helps 🙂

We don’t eat pasta or bread. I’ve never made pesto of any kind and I’m wondering how I would use it. It looks so healthy! Any ideas?
