Here is a delicious and very simple pesto recipe by Gwyneth Paltrow. It's great as a spread for good bread or crackers! I really love this quick and easy pesto. It's a winner! Ingredients:
1 cup artichoke heart, cooked (canned would be fine, and roughly chopped) |
1/8 cup raw pine nuts |
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil |
1 small garlic clove, peeled and minced |
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, finely grated |
coarse salt, a pinch (just a little since the parmesan is salty, you can always add more salt when finished) |
fresh ground black pepper, a few grinds |
1 -2 teaspoon fresh tarragon leaves, thinly sliced (use as much as you would like, to taste...i like 1 t.) |
Directions:
1. Pulse the first 7 ingredients together in a food processor. Stir in the tarragon and season to taste with more salt and pepper, if needed.
2. Enjoy!
