Vegan Walnut Pesto

Fill your food processor up with fresh basil (I usually use 3 big boxes from Trader Joes)

Add about 1 Tablespoon chopped garlic

Add about a handful of walnuts (you can also omit the nuts)

Juice of 1/2 a lemon

Sea Salt

Pulse until thoroughly combined.

Turn food processor on and slowly drizzle olive oil in until it comes to a somewhat smooth consistency. You can make it very creamy by adding more olive oil and continuing to process the mix, or, leave it a bit thick, or somewhere in between.
