    Fresh, spicy, sustainable: This is how pesto works today

    Do you have some sad leftover greens in the fridge? We say: No waste, it's pesto time! Our green pesto is the perfect solution for saving spinach, arugula, or other herbs from the trash and transforming them into an incredibly aromatic taste experience. You can mix together this versatile miracle cure in just 10 minutes. A handful of greens, cashews (or your favorite nuts), fresh lemon juice, salt, pepper, and good olive oil – that's all you need for this creamy delight. It keeps in the fridge for up to four days and is not only a dream with pasta, but also fantastic in salads or as a spread. Be sure to try it with our orzo salad for a light yet filling dish. Cooking has never been so sustainable and delicious!
