Thermomix Basil Pesto
My sister-in-law often teaches me about whole foods. She takes it to the next level. With just a few simple, fresh ingredients from the garden, she inspires me to create so many dishes. Pesto is one of her specialties and can be used in so many different ways. The list is endless! Here are just some suggestions for you to try.
Try it:
- on roasted vegetables
- in wraps
- smeared on crispy skin salmon or white fish
- served as a dip with carrot or cucumber sticks
- with flaxseed crackers
- as a salad dressing
- with roasted pineapple, white wine and pistachios
