Mint and Parsley Pesto
 
Makes ½ cup
Ingredients
  • 1 medium clove garlic
  • ¼ cup raw walnuts
  • 1½ cups packed fresh parsley
  • 1 cup fresh mint, packed
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
  1. In the work bowl of a food processor or the container of a blender, place garlic and walnuts. Process until finely ground, about 20 seconds. Add parsley, mint, salt, and pepper. With processor running, pour oil through food chute in a slow, steady stream. Process until pesto is completely puréed and smooth, scraping down sides as needed, about 1 minute.
  2. Add Parmesan, and process for 1 minute to incorporate. Use immediately, or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days. The color of the pesto will darken slightly in the refrigerator, but it will still taste delicious.
