Kale and Walnut Pesto
You have Kale in your CSA, but your kids want pasta for supper.
Solution! Kale pesto!
.25 cups walnuts
.5 lb kale, coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
.5 c olive oil (or our gmo free canola oil)
.5 c grated Parmesan cheese
Toast your chopped walnuts until they start to brown. Place in a cold bowl as soon as they start to brown or they will burn.
Bring a pot of water to a boil, add 1 tbsp salt, then add the kale. Cook until tender and drain (about 10 minutes)
Put garlic, walnuts, and kale in a blender or food processor, pulse until well combined. With the processor running, then slowly add the oil in a steady stream.
When everything is combined, transfer to a bowl, stir in Parmesan, salt and pepper to taste.
Serve hot.
