Basil-Mint Orange Pesto
Makes: 1 cup
1 cup packed fresh basil leaves
1 cup packed fresh mint leaves
1/2 cup walnuts
2 tablespoons frozen orange concentrate, thawed
2 garlic cloves, peeled
1/4 cup olive oil
In a food processor, blend the basil, mint, walnuts, orange juice concentrate and garlic until almost smooth. With machine running, gradually add olive oil; process until smooth. If pesto is dry, mix in more oil by spoonfuls. Press plastic wrap onto surface, cover and refrigerate up to 2 days. Freezes well.
I've been wanting to make a dish for Presto Pasta Nights... and this is my first one! Wooo!
And, many thanks to my mom, who recently handed down to me her rarely-used older food processor. I originally requested it because I had planned to shred some of my cold-processed soap and turn it into laundry soap. However, I found it much more useful for making food instead! Thanks, Mom! :-D
