Equipment

  • Food Processor

Ingredients

  • 2 cups packed fresh basil
  • ¼ cup unsalted sunflower seeds (pumpkin seeds would also work)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 3 Tbsp nutritional yeast
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 4-8 Tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients, except olive oil, to a food processor.
  • Blend ingredients while slowly adding olive oil until you achieve the desired consistency.
