  • In a blender or food processor, place the dill, parsley, nuts, and garlic.
  • Whirl until finely minced.
  • Add the oil and cheese, and process until blended.

1/2 cup packed fresh flat-leaf parsley (Italian)

SUNFLOWER SEED AND BASIL PESTO

Pine nuts are pricey but sunflower seeds aren't and they do a mighty fine job in a delicious green pesto. Super smooth or a little chunky, it's delicious either way. Store in an airtight container for 5 to 6 days.

Peppery, tangy, creamy, and fresh-tasting - this pesto has it all. It's a great way to use up the bounty of your summer herb garden, and each batch will last in the fridge for up to 2 weeks! Use it to dress up pasta, potatoes, eggs, sauces, marinades, or soups. Spread it on bread and top with grilled chicken and tomatoes for a delightful open-faced sandwich. Or, stir a spoonful into mayonnaise for a homemade pesto aioli.

  • Remove about 2 1/2 - 3 cups (loosely packed) of leaves from the dill bunch. It's ok if you get some of the stems in there. Just whack the dill off about half way up the stalk and pick out some of the thicker stems. You don't need to pull all of them off all the stems.
  • Put the dill in the work bowl of a food process or or in a blender. Add the almonds/pine nuts, garlic, salt, juice from 1/2 a lemon and the pinch of pepper flakes.
  • Pulse until everything is minced well and scrape down the sides as needed. While the machine is running, drizzle in the oil and blend for a few seconds until smooth.
  • Transfer the pesto to a lidded container and chill until ready to use. It should last about a week in the fridge.
