This goes together so quickly! I love pesto, but buying enough basil to make it can be a lot of money, also Basil in my area turns bad rather quickly so it's hard to even keep it long enough to turn it into pesto. I saw a broccoli pesto online so I made up this recipe that is super cheap, fast, and really lower in fat that normal pesto.
|
Sorry this is really low quality - but I steamed the broccoli while I boiled my pasta. |
|
Then I added some fresh thyme and parsley, flax seed, almonds, and parmesan. |
|
When the broccoli is bright green, which doesn't take long, take it off the heat. |
|
add it to your processor. |
|
Mix up. |
|
Add vegetable broth a little at a time until it is thinned enough. After that if you want you can add some olive oil for flavor, but it's not required. |
|
Mix with pasta in a different bowl and then place on a plate. Sprinkle with some cheese if you want. |
