Fridge Raid Pesto!

I love making my own pesto at home and mixing in different veggies and nuts. Pea pesto is a favourite but wanted to use up some spinach so threw it in there too!

Ingredients

1 - 1 and 1/2 cups of frozen peas (defrosted and cooked as per instructions)

1 and 1/2 cups baby spinach (blanched)

2-3 medium sized cloves of garlic

1/4 cup fresh basil

1/4 cup fresh parsley

1 teaspoon oregano (fresh or dried)

4-5 tablespoons of olive oil

6-7 walnuts (increase the quantity to make it more creamy)

2-3 tablespoons of parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons of lemon juice

Salt to taste

Black pepper to taste

Steps

1. Add all the ingredients to the food processor and blitz until you get a smooth paste. If the mixture is too dry, add some water (no more then a tablespoon at a a time) until you get the desired consistency.

2. Stir in with some pasta or spread on top of some toast and enjoy!
