Perfect Basil Pesto
Updated: Mar 30, 2020
This creamy and delicious vegan basil pesto is a staple in my house. I am all about batch making this recipe and freezing in portions so I can use on salmon, as a dip when socialising, salad dressing or as a pizza spread.
This pesto is used in my delicious Warm Tofu Mediterranean Salad. Check it out!
