Ingredients
- 1 cup Fresh basil leaves
- 0.25 cup Pine nuts
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 cup Extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 cup Soy-free mayonnaise
Directions
Step 1
Start by toasting the pine nuts to enhance their flavor. Place them in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, for about 3-5 minutes or until they become fragrant and lightly golden brown. Remove from the heat and let them cool slightly.
Step 2
In a food processor, add the fresh basil leaves, toasted pine nuts, grated Parmesan cheese, and minced garlic. Pulse a few times to combine and break down the ingredients.
Step 3
With the food processor running, slowly drizzle in the extra-virgin olive oil, and blend until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides as necessary to ensure even blending.
Step 4
Add the lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the pesto mix. Pulse again to combine all the ingredients. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Step 5
Transfer the prepared pesto into a mixing bowl. Add the soy-free mayonnaise to the bowl and stir well until fully integrated with the pesto.
Step 6
Once the ingredients are well mixed, transfer your soy-free pesto mayonnaise into a storage container. Store it in the refrigerator for up to one week.
Step 7
Serve as a spread for sandwiches, a topping for grilled meats, or a dip for vegetables to enjoy the rich flavors.
