Recipe By: Emma Swanston / @emsswanston

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 cups, firmly packed, baby spinach – washed and rinsed
  • ⅓ cup coriander (cilantro)
  • ¼ cup raw almonds
  • 1 large jalapeño, finely sliced (with or without seeds depending on how feisty you like things, more or less to taste)
  • 1 tbsp lime juice – from approx 1/2 a lime
  • 1 tsp coconut oil, melted and cooled
  • 1 tsp Gevity Rx Natural Bone Broth Body Glue
  • Salt and pepper to taste

METHOD:

  1. Pre-heat oven to 175’C (350’F)
  2. Place almonds onto a lined baking sheet and toast for 10 minutes until lightly golden and fragrant
  3. Once almonds are toasted place them, along with all remaining ingredients into food processor or blender and process until well combined
  4. If you’d like to make a thinner pesto add a touch of water (or neutral flavored oil) a tbsp. at a time until you reach your desired consistency

 NOTES / TIPS:

  • Pesto should keep well stored, covered or in a sealed air tight container in the fridge for up to 7 days.
  • It can also be frozen (for up to 3 months) in a ice cube tray, then transferred to a ziplock bag in single servings ready to grab and go as needed.
