Ingredients
  

  • 1 big bunch of fresh basil leaves
  • 10 dl loosely packed fresh spinach 5 cups
  • 1 dl pine nuts 1/2 cup
  • 1,5 dl grated Parmesan cheese 3/4 cup (lactose free)

  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • pinch of salt to taste
  • pinch of black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Toast the pine nuts on a pan very lightly (don’t use any oil), just long enough for them to get a little bit color
  • Use a food processor or a mixer. First, add the basil leaves and washed spinach leaves and pulse/mix to paste.
  • Then add the pine nuts and pulse/mix again.
  • Add the olive oil, Parmesan cheese and lemon juice and pulse/mix again.
  • Have a taste and season the way you like it. You can add more Parmesan or lemon if you feel like it.
  • Enjoy, for example, with pasta!
