Carrot Greens Pesto (or ways to reduce food waste)

Jessica Braider
Course Dinner

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup chopped carrot greens stems removed and saved for stock
  • 1 clove garlic roughly chopped
  • 3 tablespoons toasted walnuts
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • salt & pepper

Instructions
 

  • Combine carrot greens, garlic, walnuts, and parmesan in a food processor. Once they have started to blend together, slowly pour in the olive oil while the food processor continues to run. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

This pesto freezes well, so if you have more than a cup of greens, just adjust the recipe to fit your needs and freeze the pesto in small containers.
