Pumpkin Seed and Cilantro Pesto
Sauces and Marinades • Mediterranean
Description
Pesto sauce is perfect for many dishes, such as pasta or meat. It yields a good amount, 16 oz. (450 g), so feel free to halve the ingredient quantities. Since it contains no dairy, it also lasts longer than usual. You can add red pepper, salt, and lime juice to taste. Alternatively, add more water if you prefer a thinner sauce.
