Pepita Pesto Recipe

3/15/2023

Pine nuts are too expensive. They’ve always been too expensive, and it’s even worse with the post-lockdown inflation. Fear not– a substitute has emerged. Roasted pepitas are available at most supermarkets for almost a third of the price, and they’re tasty in many other applications when your pesto is ready. 

I use this version on everything from pasta to pizza, from sandwiches to salads. 

Check out the recipe below!

** Use the water to adjust the consistency of your pesto for your preferred use. I like a thicker pesto as pictured to work into pasta sauces. The whole 1/4 cup can make it a dipping sauce.
