Pesto with basil and kefir recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2 garlic cloves
  • handful of roasted almonds
  • 4 tablespoons of homemade kefir
  • 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • handful of fresh basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon of Himalayan sea salt

In a food processor or blender first blend almonds for about 10 seconds, then add other ingredients and blend all for about 15 seconds to break down the ingredients.
Serve pesto with pasta or gnocchi.

This time I choose gluten free penne to go with this pesto. Enjoy!

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
