Chive Pesto

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 cups chopped onion chives

• 1/3 cup chopped walnuts, toasted

• 1/3 cup Cotija parmesan (Mexican parmesan) or Italian parmesan

• 1 plump garlic clove, chopped

• 1/4 cup Verbena Chive Infused olive oil

• 1/2 juicy lemon squeezed without seeds

DIRECTIONS:

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. Slowly add the olive oil down the tube while the processor is on and whirl until it is pesto like consistency. Squeeze about 1/2 lemon into the mixture and give it another spin until mixed well.

3. If you prefer a looser pesto, add more olive oil a tablespoon at a time (as described in step 2) until you get the consistency you like.
