About Lemon pesto

Lemon Pesto is a vibrant twist on traditional pesto, blending fresh basil, garlic, pine nuts, and olive oil with the zesty brightness of lemon juice and zest. Originating as a modern take on Italian cuisine, this flavorful condiment adds a refreshing citrus note to pasta, roasted vegetables, or grilled proteins. Rich in heart-healthy fats from olive oil and nuts, it's also packed with antioxidants and vitamins from basil and lemon. Garlic contributes immune-boosting properties, while pine nuts provide protein and magnesium. Despite its nutritious profile, Lemon Pesto can be calorie-dense due to the use of oil and nuts, so portions should be mindful. It's typically free from artificial ingredients, making it a clean eating choice. With its bold, versatile flavor and wholesome ingredients, Lemon Pesto is a healthy way to enhance dishes when enjoyed in moderation.
