maggiedesign wants to cook this
6
- 3 cups of raw spinach, packed tight
- 1/2 cup raw hazelnuts (walnuts are fine, too)
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp honey
- juice from 1/2 lemon (optional)
- fresh ground salt & pepper, to taste
In a food processor, combine nuts, cheese, garlic & honey. Pulse until they make a paste. Add spinach, pulse a few times. Then slowly add olive oil until it’s a creamy consistency - but small chunks of spinach are fine. Lastly, add salt & pepper and lemon juice to taste.
