Chive Pesto

6 ingredients
3 steps

Ingredients

  • 2 cups chopped onion chives
  • 1/3 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
  • 1/3 cup Cotija parmesan (Mexican parmesan) or Italian parm
  • 1 plump garlic clove, chopped
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 juicy lemon squeezed without seeds

Directions

  1. 1
    Chop chives and add to bowl of food processor. Add all the other ingredients except the olive oil and whirl it up until chopped and mixed well.
  2. 2
    Slowly add the olive oil down the tube while the processor is on and whirl until it is pesto like consistency. I squeezed about 1/2 lemon into the mixture which seemed to brightened it and then gave it another spin until mixed well.
  3. 3
    If you prefer a more loose pesto, add more olive oil a tablespoon at a time (as described in step 2) until you get the consistency you like.
