Scale
  • 1 zucchini, roughly chopped or grated
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 1/2 cup/50 g walnuts, toasted 
  • 3 tbsp tahini
  • 1 bunch of fresh basil
  • 23 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 lemon, juiced

Instructions

  1. Add zucchini, garlic, walnuts, tahini, basil, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, and a large pinch of salt and pepper to a blender or food processor, and blend until creamy.
  2. With the motor still running, start to add olive oil (or water, if oil free), until you reach desired consistency. Enjoy!

Notes

If you prefer thicker pesto, squeeze any excess water out of shredded zucchini first.
