Vegan Pesto Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 cup pine nuts
2 garlic cloves
3 cups fresh basil, leafs
1/2 cup nutritional yeast
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

Preparation

In food processor add one ingredient at a time and pulse to blend with some of the olive oil until all ingredients are blended together. Add more olive oil if needed. Use immediately or store in refrigerator with a little olive oil drizzled over the top to keep from browning. Serve over bow tie pasta or gnocchi. The taste of the pesto is strong enough to hold it's own when served with whole wheat pasta.
