Chickweed Pesto Recipe

2 cloves garlic

3/4 cup pine nuts (or walnuts)

2 cups chickweed leaves

1 cup basil leaves

1/2 cup olive oil

3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese

Pulse your garlic fine in a food processor.

Add nuts and blend til they're finely chopped.

Add remaining ingredients and process until smoothe.

When you've got your desired consistency stir in a pinch of salt.

*The trick to a good pesto is to make sure you blend the garlic first, then the nuts. Otherwise, you'll end up with big chunks that can't be reduced once you've added the other ingredients.
