Cuisine Healthy Snacks & Sides, Sauces/Pestos
Servings 2 Cups

Ingredients
  

  • 5 OZ Spinach Fresh
  • 1/2 Cup Avocado Oil or Olive oil My favorite is using avocado oil because it has a lighter flavor & lets the other flavors of this pesto shine.

  • 3/4 tsp Salt
  • Juice of 1/2 Lime
  • 1/4 Cup Raw Pine Nuts
  • 5 Jalapeños Deseeded

  • Place everything in a food processor accept the oil and pulse a few times. Next turn on the food processor and drizzle in the oil while the food processor is running, do this for approximately 30 seconds.
  • This makes 2 Cups therefore store leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
  • It was delicious with the sweet potato & black bean tacos.
  • Also layered it on a dinner salad.
  • For a spicy flare drizzle it on baked sweet potato along with the other toppings.
