Growing up my parents would buy pesto from the grocery store but it was only for special occasions since the store bought jars were always so expensive. If only I had known how EASY and inexpensive it is to make it on your own. Now I make pesto whenever I want since I have the ingredients already on hand. Plus it is a great way to use fresh basil before it goes bad. It will stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Not only is this recipe garlic-free and dairy-free which is impossible to find in the store but it has a multi-purpose use when cooking. I use it on top of pasta, in a burger, and on fish like this salmon recipe. Let your imagination go wild! You can thank me later when you impress yourself and your dinner guests with this low FODMAP foods.
