The third and final in my series of recipes with Snacking Essentials and California Walnuts is yummy pasta with homemade basil and walnut pesto.
It’s a brilliantly speedy dinner option and can be whipped up in minutes.
I’ve added courgettes here, but the dish also works well with peppers, mushrooms or any roast veggies.
Making your own pesto is really easy and can be healthier and more delicious than the shop bought version.
Basil pesto is classically made with pine nuts, but walnuts are a great option too, in fact, walnuts also offer 4.4g of protein and 1.4g of fibre and being low in sugar and very low salt.
I love working with Snacking Essentials because I know that I’m getting great quality.
And, California Walnuts are the best, and like on the new Snacking Essentials packs, they’re identifiable with a sticker or label which states: Produce of California or Produce of the USA on the pack.
I hope you enjoy, love Niki xx
