Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by gathering all your ingredients for the Pesto Basilic Maison savoureux. Rinse the fresh basil leaves and set them aside to dry. Slice open the avocados and scoop out the flesh.
  2. In a food processor, combine the fresh basil, avocado, pine nuts, and garlic. Pulse for about 30 seconds until finely chopped, scraping down the sides as needed.
  3. Add the nutritional yeast and blend for another 10-15 seconds until evenly incorporated and aromatic.
  4. With the processor running, gradually drizzle in the olive oil over 30 seconds until fully emulsified and creamy.
  5. Scrape the pesto into a bowl, taste, and adjust salt as needed, adding pasta water if using with pasta.
  6. Serve immediately with bread, pasta, or veggies, or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
