Parsley Pesto

Ingredients

 

3 cloves of garlic
2 1/2 cups of parsley
juice from half a lemon
1/4 cup and 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
1/2 cup of olive oil
1/2 an avocado
salt and pepper

Add garlic and parsley too a food processor blend. Once garlic is fully chopped, add in lemon, nutritional yeast and gradually add in the olive oil. Continue adding olive oil until you reach desired consistency. For me it took half a cup. Then add the avocado and salt and pepper to taste.
(The avocado adds a nice creamy texture-would be a great addition to regular pesto too!)

Serve over pasta, veggies, or mixed in hummus! Enjoy:)
