Recipe with carrot tops

Carrot top pesto

I haven't tried this one either, but it was passed on to me by a CSA member.

Ingredients:
1 large bunch carrot greens
1/4 cup plus 2 TBSP walnut pieces
1 1/2 TBSP olive oil
2-3 cloves garlic
1 TBSP nutritional yeast OR parmesan cheese
1/2 TBSP lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste

Combine the first six ingredients in a food processor or blender. Add salt and pepper to taste.

NOTE: if you leave your stems on, your pesto will have a slightly stringy quality.
