Cilantro, Walnut and Cranberry Pesto

 


I think pesto sauce is underrated. Bursting with flavor and packed with vitamins and minerals. I use as a spread on just about everything! Some folk do not care for cilantro; so sub out with Italian parsley. Bought fresh cilantro at the Boulder Farmer's Market and truly the flavor so much better than the grocery store!

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups packed cilantro leaves, rinsed and patted dry
  • 1/2 cup toasted walnuts (350-degree oven about 8 minutes)
  • scant 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, placed in boiled water for 5 minutes
  • 1/3 cup dried sweetened cranberries
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 1/3 cup olive oil
Directions:
Place all in food processor until forms a smooth paste.
