Superfood Pesto Recipe
This easy pesto recipe with a superfood twist combines cleansing greens with an abundance of hemp seeds in place of the traditional pine nuts for a ready-to-use sauce that stays vibrantly green, thanks to the lemon. As an added bonus, it's vegan-friendly since it uses nutritional yeast in place of parmesan!
